how do I choose between different types of telecaster guitars?

Toto Lotito asked:


I´ve seen all of the offered telecasters at www.fender.com. I´m looking for a good guitar, one that I´ll mostly use as a rythm guitar, cause i am not fond of great guitar solos. I´ve also tried Stratocasters but I am looking for a cleaner, more bolder sound, for rock, pop and folk music. What I´d like to have is an answer on quality vs. cost basis. For example: is there really that much difference between Custom an Vintage or Deluxe Series?

Mishima666 asked:

I’ve been playing flamenco guitar for about ten years now, and my musical interests have broadened somewhat. I’d like to get into electric guitar, and the Strat always seems to come highly recommended.

The problem is that there seem to be over a hundred models, and it’s hard to understand all the features.

Question: what features are most desirable, most important, etc.? I have no professional aspirations, but I would like a guitar that I’m not going to outgrow any time soon — you know, one with sufficient features and quality that I’m not going to be shopping for a new one five years from now. I’m not interested in spectacular looks, models named after famous people, collectors vintage models, etc.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

(Pickips, Pickgaurds, bridges,etc)
p.s., the guitar in question is a vintage modified Jazz Bass.

Gibson Vintage Mahogany Les Paul vs. Studio Les Paul!

Mrs. Ringo asked:


Which is a better guitar. I would think the Vintage Mahogany is because it has BurstBucker Pro pickups (same as the old and new 2008 Standards). But a lot of people love the Studio. Thoughts?

I’m getting a Fender electric guitar for the holidays but I can’t decide what model to pick. Should I get a Fender Vintage Hot Rod ‘57 Stratocaster or an Eric Clapton Stratocaster? I love to play tones that range from vintage to metal.

Electric Guitars?

Sweets asked:

I’m in search of an electric guitar, and was wanting to know everyone’s opinions on brands. He wants a Fender, but we also spotted an awsome Samick pack. I’d love to have the amp included. I’ve also heard Yahama are ok also. I don’t want a vintage, because of price and well, they’re old. lol More than one pickup and/or humbucker too. He is a beginer, but wants one that will always be better than he is. lol

Any ideas of what to look for, and what to look out for? Any links to sites with amazing deals on a new one? (I’ve been all over ebay so don’t point it out!)

Thanks for your help, and I hope to have him shreddin by x-mas!!!
;o)
I DID mention this is for my HUSBAND, not a child….. He’s been playing for only a couple months on an acoustic, but now wants an electric.

Akshay asked:

I want to buy a new electric guitar. I’m looking out for a Fender Strato-caster and i have some queries.

Firstly, some info: I’ve been playing for about a year and a half and i can’t exactly say that I’m an expert, but I’m not a complete dullard either loll! I plan to take up the guitar as a career and go to Berkley. I play Rock.

Now the queries:

1. What pickup setup should I go in for: 2 Single coil and a humpbucker or all single coils or what?

2. What’s the HSS in the name of a Stratoocaster mean?

3. Is it possible to but a normal strat and then later on get it fitted with a floyd rose locking tremolo system?

4. Whats the difference between a normal and a vintage guitar? Which one is more advisable?

5. Where can I buy a Strat in Bombay, India? How much will one cost approximately?

6. What exactly is a Hot Rod?

7. Do you think that there si another guitar that would be better and most cost effective that the strat?

I believe one of them was a Gibson Flying V and I think the other was a vintage Fender Strat, but I’m not really sure!
