The piece I ordered arrived with a cracked fingerboard and stained with glue. In addition, the frets extended beyond the fingerboard so that you could easily cut yourself while playing. It was an absolute shock how something like this could pass quality control at a manufacturer or retailer. However, Muziker took a constructive approach to the complaint. The complaints department offered a new tool, the purchase of another or a refund. I preferred the first option. The new tool arrived after a long time, because the product was not immediately available due to the manufacturer. He was uncoordinated, with a lot of grip, but otherwise technically this time without reservations. It's no vintage Telecaster with twang, but an extremely solid and robust guitar for modern genres, especially low-tuned hi-gain sounds. It is completely semi-automatic - both body and neck. Only the black chrome mechanism is shiny. The neck is amazing - baked maple, satin back, very nice C profile, perfect for medium and smaller hands. The head of the neck has a relatively large angle, so be careful when storing in the transport package (increased support under the neck is required). The ergonomic body has pleasant cutouts for the right hand and stomach, the highest positions are easily accessible. After professional tuning, which is absolutely necessary, you get a very solid, stable and well-balanced instrument with a solid bridge pickup (the neck has a noticeably weaker output). Just watch out for the wrong piece. Overall, this is an interesting and affordable option for the modern-minded Telecaster lover. ________________________________________ The ordered piece arrived with a cracked fingerboard and dirty from glue. In addition, the frets overlapped the fingerboard so that you could easily cut yourself while playing. It was an absolute shock how something like this could pass quality control by a manufacturer or dealer. However, Muziker approached the complaint constructively. The claims department offered a new instrument, purchasing another or a refund. I preferred the first option. The new instrument arrived after a longer time, as the product was not immediately available due to the manufacturer's fault. No complaints about the quality this time, however there was no care about the set up. It's not a vintage Telecaster with a twang, but an extremely solid and robust guitar for modern genres, especially for drop tuned hi-gain sounds. Apart from the black chrome hardware, it is complete in semi-matt - both body and neck. The neck is amazing - baked maple, satin finish, very nice C profile, perfect for medium and smaller hands. The headstock has quite a large angle, so be careful about storing it in a case (increased neck support is required). Ergonomic body has nice cutouts for the right hand and abdomen, the highest positions are easily accessible. After adjustment by a professional, which is absolutely necessary, you get a very sturdy, stable and well-balanced instrument with a good bridge pickup (the neck minirail humbucker has a noticeably weaker output). Just beware of the wrong piece. Overall, this is an interesting and reasonably priced option for modern-minded Telecaster lovers.
