Here at the Telecaster Revolution we're doing things a bit differently. I've been a Sound Engineer and a guitar player for a long, long time and after
years of trying to find an electric guitar that didn't throw off my playing because of all the weird sounds I was hearing and a glaring lack of accurate responsiveness to my hand pressure, I finally decided to start customizing my own Telecasters! Through experimenting, listening, gigging, and more experimenting I now have guitars that allow me to just play and enjoy what I'm hearing coming out of the amp!
On the surface it looks, mostly, like just another Tele but the
MANY custom modifications make the whole guitar greater than the sum of it's parts! (Check out YouTube video demos for a full rundown of features and the wide range of,
useable, tones this guitar will get,
ALL from adjusting the knobs and the 4-way switch!!
So important when playing in the context of a live band!)
Alder wood Tele Bodies
:- Left Handed bridge on a right-handed guitar to mellow out spiky treble strings and give more edge to bass strings
