The Telecaster Finally Hit Me

[@westonhogan1672]

We didn't land on the telecaster, the telecaster landed on us.

[@joeandreana2645]

Thnx for giving some tele love! My 25 year old plus MIM tele never has had an issue and YES many Springsteen songs.

[@charleshodge9327]

About time. More Telly tunes

[@elproff007]

Love the mix of technique, gear, tone, and humor! 🙏💜🎸

[@Uuur10]

Love the "thick" sound of that Tele

[@lazvt8469]

That's the word....thick....relative to my Strats. Became a single coil 63 year old fan a couple years ago...with 12 Teles. Tele's rule....but you need great pups to get the magic out of them.

[@Uuur10]

@lazvt8469 that plus a resonating body... = about my favourite electric guitar sound. Some other Teles just sound brittle to me. I'm uninitiated. I need to go to a store one day and try two dozens.

[@lazvt8469]

@@Uuur10 As a lefty...I have to buy unseen. Most stock Tele's (except my CS and LSL) did sound 'brittle'...so I always get better pups...which can even sound different in different guitars also. It's fun to experiment... I have a budget AIO Tele with Suhrs that sounds damn close to my CS...but those same Suhrs sounded thin/bright on HBs and a CV50.

Yep I haven’t heard that song in a while but you definitely got the sound I remember in my head. Thanks for the pedal lesson also. Nice guitar my partscaster is getting worried now lol…

[@josephcasey322]

Boss lesson man! Pun intended! Loads of help to me, starting into electric guitar. Your on fire in an uncreepy way😂

[@gregmock6808]

Last year I got my first black guard tele and never was a tele guy before...now I'm hooked on it and barely play my strat anymore.

[@michaelbarbour9827]

“Not creepy… not creepy at all…”🤣🤣🤣

[@monkofwar]

My severe case of GAS started with a blonde 1967 Telecaster. The rest is history.

[@aluminati9918]

Welcome, you’re now in the T-society! Like the Eagles said: You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave

[@brucehelppie6119]

nice telecaster, good lesson.

[@petermcgarrymusicandflying]

Have a Squier CV Tele. Love it. Greetings to Sean

[@lazvt8469]

I have a couple of them...do yourself a favor, if you haven't already, drop a set of used Lollar or Fralins in them...WONDERFUL.

[@mrbigg7255]

Sounds good. Should get a tele myself.

[@jcburger733]

Great lesson!! Someday I will need to attempt to improve my finger picking.

[@renokid64]

Not creepy at all...lol..thanks for the sweet guitar lesson.

[@samstone6180]

Sean, I totally have the perfect follow up video idea for you because I have already written the perfect Bruce Springsteen type of song for this. Yup. Want a crack at it? Btw-Yes, it seems I did use perfect twice.

[@mannydecastro8604]

I picked up the same from someone near me. A little on the heavy side, but think it’s beautiful. . And the price was perfect for me 🎸🎸🎸

[@Musical_Jurist]

Steve Martin's favorite son.

[@bonnieknight7424]

That guitar is so beautiful and the sound what you more of a fan of Stratocaster or telecaster ? I never touched a telecaster thank you Shawn for the video stay safe ❤🎸🎸✌

[@allenmahan9393]

OMG _KILLER!_ 😱 🎸😮

[@cwwisk]

You should try a G&L ASAT Special sometime. Far superior guitar in every way

[@lazvt8469]

The MFDs are exceptional as is the build quality. Mine had a baseball bat neck...traded it away.

[@cwwisk]

@lazvt8469 i will never give mine up lol

[@odzhak]

Your pattern would be much easier to play if you don't use the thumb to play the next string under. Just use the thumb, 1, 2, 3. And shift to lower strings as needed. You're making it harder than it is.

[@adambilge2834]

How can I get Bruce Springsteen's guitar tone - said no one ever. That's like asking how to sing like Lou Reed.

[@jamesnewton485]

I think of Prince before Springsteen when thinking "telecaster". Plus Prince was a better player and songwriter.

[@user-no1cares]

Ashtray Sean, ashtray, not plate.

[@jimjim7008]

$100 guitar would probably sound better than this junk. Unless you do serious modifications . I think people like them to feel alternative and cool rather than playability. I had ones a MIJ fender strat from the late 80s and it was total junk. Instead I bought a charvel with JB in the bridge and the difference was night and day.

[@newworldwellness7007]

First

[@user-no1cares]

Almost!

[@newworldwellness7007]

Okay… Second..lol
