I saw Kingfish in May of 2022 - I was absolutely blown away. I’ve been lucky to see some of the greats - BB King, Buddy Guy, Jeff Beck, Carlos Santana, Mark Knopfler, Derek Trucks, Peter Frampton, just to name a few. Kingfish is up there with them, and he’s in his early 20s. It makes me so happy and proud that someone from my generation is carrying on the greatness of so many guitar giants from the past. As it turns out, I was turning 30 in 2023 and was planning on getting a custom built guitar. After I saw this model come out, I went to Guitar Center and gave it a spin - absolutely loved the way it played. I bought it and have now owned it for a year. Beautiful sounding and playing guitar - my only complaint is I wish the finish was nitrocellulose, and I wouldn’t mind if they included some plain pickup covers in the case. Both are pretty minor issues to me. I’ve taken the guitar to a couple of gigs and just got back from traveling to N.C. with it. I’m very glad to have it in my arsenal - it’s a fantastic guitar.

This looks so much like my "Troublemaker" Tele Deluxe except for the truss rod. While most Fender humbuckers are that "double tap" humbucker which I really don't like, the Tele Deluxe has Shawbucker 1 & 2 (neck & bridge). I loved that pickup so much, I yoinked the double tap from my American Performer SSH & put a Shawbucker 2 in there. It's hard to mess up a Telecaster, but Fender does this model right. It's pretty heavy, but hey it's Kingfish's signature, so weight can't be a problem, right? With matt texture paint being the rage these days, releasing a sparkle finish is pretty bawlsy move. What is the point of the double string tree on the headstock though? Put a GraphTech nut in that thing, you won't be able to force it out of tune. I'm not a fan of the Kluson though. Yes, they look good but Fender Locking should be the defacto.
@roentgen5712 жыл бұрын
I actually think the back of the headstock autograph is a decent place to put a sig model's name. It's unobtrusive there. Plus, at a Rush concert in 2007, I caught a glimpse of the back of the headstock of Geddy's bass, and his was the same as my two sig basses. His bass tech later confirmed on the talkbass forums that they'd replaced the neck on Geddy's main bass with a Fender sig model neck, and they also had a couple of the sig models they took on tour to use in the rotation, so I could have seen either. Nice to know that the endorsers ACTUALLY DO use their sig models, at least sometimes. Tony Franklin's sig bass is much the same, but the only place his name shows up is the neck plate. I love sig models. They often give an array of features you just can't get in stock models. Jackson does Adrian Smith's and Fender does two Dave Murrays, so I'm waiting for Fender to do a Janick Gers, hopefully fully relicked! lol

Really interesting & helpful video! Lovely guitar :) One thought came to my mind when you mentioned the vintage style tuners: why doesn‘t fender use locking tuners for all of their guitars? What‘s the benefit of a vintage style tuner expect for the looks maybe? 🤔 I just figured since I always would prefer locking tuners over any other conventional tuning machine. I experienced that locking tuners are always faster when it comes to changing strings, the tuning stability also seems better.

I owned a Troublemaker & miss it. The humbuckers on the Tele Deluxe are incredible. The Troublemaker's paint chipped off easily but it was otherwise a great guitar. One thing I don't like about this one, it's only 21 frets. The fact Kingfish's signature guitar has no belly cut is ironic. Price a standard Tele Deluxe before you buy this one. Fender's been asking a lot for these guitars & they don't even put locking tuners on. Edit - it does have a belly cut. I wasn't paying attention. The case has a mini insulin fridge too, pretty good deal.

To find the resistance of an unmarked pot just put that meter of yours on the outer lugs of the pot. I think it would read right in circuit on a guitar. Now if it was a pot in series with the negative feedback loop as an adjustable feedback control in an amp then you would get a crazy reading, at least with one setup like a 5f6a Tweed Bassman. But I think it would read right in a guitar circuit. I'm going to check when I get home to make sure though lol.

Tele Deluxe is my favorite Fender design. The Les Paul/Troublemaker style bridge on it is cool. These are great guitars if you're coming from Les Pauls but want some variation on that glassy or jangly Fender tone. In my opinion, the more Les Paul you can make the Tele Deluxe without sacrificing the Fender style tone, the better. Kingfish seems to hold the same opinion, judging by the choices he made here. The 12 inch radius is also great on a guitar like this.

I would honestly consider getting one if it wasn't for the TOM bridge.

Nobody deserves a signature guitar more than Kingfish, he’s a breath of fresh air for guitar players everywhere.

it’s more of an endorsement guitar rather than signature, a lot of the new signature guitars are really weak in terms of what they offer, you’d expect that artists would want to push the boundaries a lot more. Not worth anything more than $1000 in my opinion.

Such a shame Fender don’t offer the deluxe tele for left handed players…

I had a 2019 American pro telecaster, had nothing but problems with it, so I traded it in for my Taylor, much happier

I just received my new squire Tele deluxe (burgundy mist) and that guitar KF does not seem $1800 better - mine also has the pearloid side markers - looks, feels, plays and sounds great too

Aesthetically I’ve always felt there is not enough room on a tele, for the stop bar, I feel it’s sliding off the back visually. Maybe a wraparound if any. And again for a guitar with a no-neck-pitch-design, a tune-o-magic style bridge makes little to no sense.
