I was wondering if anyone could provide some feedback on this guitar. I have played it and am a little unsure if it's what I am looking for. I want something to play some classic rock with that sounds different from a strat.

Just wondering if anyone who has played it for more than 15 minutes in the store can offer some feedback?????

I really don't know. I don't have a tele. But I did find this video on youtube. Hope it helps out.

I think of it as both a blues guitar, and rock guitar
BUT
It is a very versatile guitar, and can be used for almost anything

Do you have the stock pu's in it?

I was thinking of changing them into something that really rocks.

I'm going to have to admit to not realy supper loving the sound till I ran it through a boss super over drive pedal. I bought it cause it played like a monster and figured that I could tinker with the sound. With the od and a chorus it sounds realy huge and I can get it realy grubby with out loosing much tone with a od and distortion pedals. Getting that super Dinosaur Jr. noise. But mine is kind of frankin guitar. I bought it new with '72 Stratocaster labeled neck rather than the "Tele Deluxe" labeled '72 strat neck, but it was "the" player in the store and I knew that I could get it to sound great.Which it does. Peace. J.J.B.

How are the stock pickups, guys? How hot are they compared to, say, a set of Gibson 490T/490R's? Is it even possible to swap them out? I know they're larger than standard humbuckers.
