Fender 2018 American Original '60s Telecaster | Guitar Demo

[@90sPunkRockCovers]

Boy oh boy, love me a double bound Tele Custom. No wonder the older American Vintage Reissue series went on sale last month, now I'm gassing for one of these...

[@Tonetwisters]

I been "gassing" for one of these since I first saw a new and original 1959 or '60 Esquire in cherry sunburst!

[@Tonetwisters]

The American Originals are the best production line Fender has made in many years, in my opinion. They did themselves and guitar players, a large disservice when they dropped this series. Nice playing! And real fine camera work, btw!

[@vyvynylification]

I agree, they're basically non customizable custom shops.

[@Tonetwisters]

@@vyvynylification MUCH agreed!!

[@chrishyde1216]

Cor, the most beautiful Telecaster I've ever seen.

[@MinivanMegafun100]

Wow, finally a video that shows how a guitar sounds in a mix. Also how it sounds playing full strummed chords and not just a bunch of noodling. This video made me want this guitar

[@arnolddealiii4259]

I love this guitar! I love the marriage of vintage and modern it has! I love the color with a rosewood fingerboard that appears to be a slab board and not a veneer board like we see on modern Fenders that still offer a rosewood option! I even dig the binding!

[@mikecostello624]

I got mine yesterday it is a slab board. In fact I got rosewood dust on my fingers finally a virgin guitar!

[@Tonetwisters]

@@mikecostello624 GOOD for you!! Play the frets off it, son!!

[@Blackkey034]

Thanks for not doing a generic guitar player intro. So many players now a days just wanna show off

[@maxkanone6434]

This guitar is so beautiful. Can't wait to get my hands on it!

[@Tonetwisters]

They are hard to find in my town ... Even a year later ...

[@Shawn-Whitfield]

This is a great demo!

[@foxsoxxband3917]

I have the red one, love it, unique tone, great for funk and country twang.

[@nige99]

Brilliant demo ....think I might get one RIGHT NOW!!!!!

[@lassej.nordvik163]

I love that sound! It has a warmth and mid-range you don’t normally find on Telecasters. I do love Tellies, but sometimes they can sound a bit shrill to my ears.

[@mikecostello624]

Not shrill at all even the neck pickup sounds great

[@eccentric0official]

I have wanted a great sounding tele for a while. I thought I had narrowed it down to a pro 2 or an ultra, then this catches my eye. I’ve always liked vintage looking fenders. Why can’t guitar shops open soon so I can them and by one? Great demo by Chris again.

[@miur-us1329]

Nice punchy tone! Video production is good, too.

[@stratobubz]

Great demo! Thanks!!

[@katamedo5703]

I really need one of these Lake placid Blue bodies in excellent condition.

[@manfromatlantis2551]

Great player makes a guitar sound great!

[@bm7760]

Would be good to know what amp you used. Thanks.

[@briano.5746]

Really dig the blue and binding . My dream Tele would have a maple fretboard though . But that said , it's pretty sweet !

[@VanillaXO]

I just realized that fenders stopped making squares of CVC telecasters, after releasing this series. check that their website has a CVC telecaster missing. and the funny thing is they have the same fretboard radius. if you have a squier CVC you can replace the pickup with pure vintage 64 to get the same sound

[@JBAikensMusic]

Please list signal chain:’ Amp, Effects...

[@AndreaOngaro]

Really impressive guitar and sound! Congrats man!

[@thinkpositive7520]

It sounds really good.

[@tomguitar1963]

I’m getting me one these great demo sweet tele goodness

[@kevgh3869]

Did you get one and if so what color?

[@66Thunders]

Got to have one of these. Only thing I have to do is put on a six saddle bridge and change the tuners.

[@leonardtristan6873]

sounds great, which amp was it ?

[@-thirteen]

That shot with the bridge cover......what's that? Do those covers work with standard bridges? I built one of these using xpg body, mighty mite neck and fender pickups. It's so nice. Poplar, though and heavy. I love this guitar. Thanks Your playing sounds great

[@ABCD-uj6gd]

size queen ashtray bridge cover

[@sideonsid2885]

is the white binding prone to discoloration ? I bought a fender Tele vintage sunburst with white binding about 2 yrs ago . Now i notice the white binding has changed to a yellowish cream .

[@Tonetwisters]

That's pretty much what it does ...

[@Alvinshrestha17]

I was thinking about getting a standard tele i change my mind now 😊

[@yufiqme5609]

Great tone, what amp & effect you used?

[@justinsullins7650]

Are the vintage tall frets bothersome? I'm used to medium jumbo

[@99jic]

I have one and yes I always preferred medium jumbo frets... Still trying to get used the vintage tall frets. But the tone is to die for!

Such a great playing. Is it your original song?

[@rebeccameier9877]

Which Song is that?

[@glennbucc7107]

Great

[@SamaZnajeshXto]

Awesome demo and sound! What amp (pedal) was used here to get the overdriven tone? It sounds just amazing with this tele

[@paulterl4563]

yes please give us some insight please

[@michaelwoolley7437]

Vujko Sam ii

[@daviddorrian5349]

My god I wish I could get that guitar with a roasted maple neck! 😍

[@ResevoirDogg7]

do all the original series teles come with the old school bridge cover?

[@mikecostello624]

This one does I found it in the pocket

[@CAGDESIGNDEVELOPMENT]

I wish it had the flat spot at the input jack

[@wesalefle]

How much do I have to pay to get this with a 7.25 radius :(

[@cgavin1]

Another $250 for a luthier to remove the frets, re-radius the board and re-install the frets.

[@wesalefle]

wozzlepop thanks for the helpful information :D

[@micheleottaviani2857]

Buy a custom 62... vintage reissue

[@michaelevans512]

What is laminated rosewood?

[@michaelevans512]

Thanks for the info

[@yespop]

Wich Amp did you use?

[@amazingme1408]

fender

[@paulterl4563]

which model?

[@ryanhernandez6002]

Who wears a thumb ring?

[@marike1100]

Who watches a video about a beautiful new Telecaster and thinks about rings? Didn't see anything but the Tele.

[@thesimulations8900]

Sick rings brah.🙄

[@meralynandcharleswalker3171]

He does!!!

[@Molnboman]

Ryan Hernandez Who gives a f@ck! #don’tjudge&justlisten

[@gdrugg2006]

sounds like the weakerthans

[@Dreyno]

🤤

[@hornedkingsp]

Great guitar, very expensive though

[@SydneyEllenMusic]

:)

[@thewomanwithnohead]

It doesn't sounds good. ... ... ... ... ... .. .. It sounds INCREDIBLE !!!

[@aaron.s.robinson]

Did Michael Bay direct this video

[@mallorga1965]

Fender without the American Vintage series doesn't have any interest to me...

[@richardnish6469]

9.5" is not Original

[@josephliptak]

What the hell is 1960's about it? Its more acurate to call it original 2018 series. Looks and sounds like a modern telecaster. Bring back the american vintage series, it was more like a vintage guitar. Today's wussies cry about the 7 1/4 radius.

[@jldkrank]

Better than having grandpa's guitar

[@randypittman2151]

Joseph P Liptak Jr Dude you are whining about this axe on every related demo LOL. The only difference between this and the AVRI is the radius and CHRIST most every Custom Shop piece today is 9.5. It’s a killer axe and internally/externally as accurate as any AVRI EXCEPT for the neck profile.....which again plays BETTER than 7.25. Why work harder than you have to???

[@Tonetwisters]

@@randypittman2151 I agree. I have a '73 Stratocaster and a 1991, '62 reissue, both with 7.25 boards, and the frets have to be darn near perfect, especially in the high register, to be able to bend without fretting out ... unless you jack up the bridge ... Unless you play a LOT of chords, 7.25 is next to worthless. Just my opinion, of course, which is the result of 57+ years of abusing Fenders ...

[@powbobs]

@@Tonetwisters Yeah, no wonder David Gilmour only plays chords. LOL

[@rodd1000]

Pointless review without listing what amp or pedals used. How hard would it have been just to put it in the description????? Seriously 😐

[@jchavins]

someone ever going to be honest on the review of these "new" Fenders ?.........less features for more money

[@mikecostello624]

Huh? Mine is great and I usually only buy used but sometimes you gotta pay

[@topopops]

About as 60’s as a 90’s Korean squire

[@mikecostello624]

Idiot spouting nonsense..

[@topopops]

mike costello okay dude, your one of those sensitive folks aren’t you

[@mikecostello624]

No you make assertions not based on fact. I am not sensitive at all. Prove your point please if you can.

[@topopops]

mike costello well it’s double bound, custom colour, non correct neck radius, most likely alincio pick ups. Lots of things. It might as well be just a 2018 American standard..

[@mikecostello624]

So wrong. In the sixties there was a "custom telecaster" that was double bound. Custom colors were available as option.Slab boards were discontinued in the early sixties, the pickups were alnico etc. Fender is not saying this is an exact replica for that you go to the custom shop which most commonly uses a 9.5 radius. Please do your homework and go argue with the mailman over the fact stamps don't look like the old ones.. No reply necessary, buzz off and find something else to do.

[@josephliptak]

The american pure vintage series was worth the money but how can you justify spending the same amount of money for something that doesn't resemble a 1960s telecaster? If im going to be spending two grand on a guitar thats supposed to look like a 60s telecaster then it better damn well have the 60s neck with 7. 25 radius to go with the rest of the 60s body. This is so ridiculous. This guitar should be priced no higher than a standard telecaster.

[@jm1933]

why pay that much for a guitar with outdated specs? better off ordering a replica. and clearly more work an thought went into this guitar than the standard range

[@MELONenSURPRISE]

sounds nothing like an old one , sounds pretty unlived

[@supermariozombies4824]

Shame about the binding. Not sure why they would represent the 60's model with a binding. Most didn't have it .

[@dandimascio99]

SuperMarioZombies all tele customs have binding, besides it's fucking awesome

[@supermariozombies4824]

this is supposed to be a 60's telecaster series not a custom 60's telecaster series. so again since the majority of the telecaster made in the 60's were not custom models why would you represent the whole fucking decade with one.

[@jaysjaysgarden398]

SuperMarioZombies Ummmmmm because this is a tele custom ...Get it yet ? do you need to be told some other way?.

[@supermariozombies4824]

Your the one that doesn't get it you fucking moron. The series is called American Original 60's Telecaster not Custom Telecaster or maybe you have a reading comprehension problem. It's supposed to represent the entire decade of Telecasters of which the Custom is a minuscule part. This would be like the 50's series being represented by an Esquire. Apparently your not savvy enough to comprehend this.

[@jaysjaysgarden398]

Wait i guess this is normal for a Grown man living as a gamer in mom's basement.
