Your other guitars will become 'case queens' ... guaranteed. Great value, although the price has been creeping up since it was introduced last year. Wish it came with a hard case, instead of that gig bag.

Can't put this thing down, have other more upscale guitars (including fenders) and this has the best feel and response. I play country, rock even some metal and pop. This thing is very bluesy. Wish it came with a hardshell case, that's why I gave an 8 for features.

The best part is that there are no "strat" body cutouts and no "strat" bridge pieces on this tele! It's a real telecaster made in the USA for under $1600.00

My first fender, owned it for 8 months and I am still having fun exploring new sounds. Very playable and responsive.

This tele has all the features a tele should have, and none of the unnecessary frills. I play mostly a low gain style of alternative rock and it is an amazing guitar for this. Drives tubes like nothing I've heard before.

True American fit, finish and build quality, at a slightly lower price than the US Standard. However if you really want the HSC, really no cheaper than a US Standard. Different pickup configuration, but still the same brilliant guitar in other ways. If you want a Tele, it's honestly a good value for the quality you get.
