Went into look... 1 of 1 customers found this review helpful




















Played this up against some pricier teles and fell in love with the neck. The neck pup is great and the bridge is really good too. I have a few guitars and have been playing for a lot of years and this guitar is a keeper.
Needed work out of the box 0 of 0 customers found this review helpful




















They set me up with the kingston stores repair guy and he set it up in front of me. It took a lot of fretwork to get it playing perfectly about 2.5 hours it took. All this was done at 0 cost to me.
The pickups sound amazing! This is the first guitar I have ever bought that isn't going to get them swapped they're just perfect. Especially the neck pickup its great!
You can't beat this tele specification wise. But play them over well. Pay close attention to the fretwork.
Not a good value for the money 3 of 5 customers found this review helpful




















The guitar came with several little problems out of the box. One of the tuners was broken and had to be replaced (which the store promptly did), the switch tip was also broken (I have to buy a spare part somewhere else), the pickguard was misplaced and bent, to the point it was almost touching the strings (I had to close the factory hole, repositioned it, and create a new one to fix the problem). The fretwork was one of the worst I have ever seen. Extremely sharp edges, sticking out of the neck. I had to sand it, round the edges, and polish them.
I get it's a vintage-like guitar and supposed to look old. But I was not expecting to get something actually broken. I was expecting to get something that is comfortable to play out of the box, which was clearly not the case.
I consider myself to be a handyman, and having to do all of that was not a big deal for me. However, this is not for everyone and this is why I want to leave this feedback.
After all this work, it plays great, and it's comfortable. Just the way I was expecting it to be. However, this is a very clear message to me that these Mexican Fenders don't worth the money. They are expensive and have poor quality control.
Loved it so much, I had to buy it 1 of 2 customers found this review helpful




















Then I plugged it into an amp, and I was sold. Or I should say, this guitar was sold. I couldn't say no! Great sounding pick ups - wasn't expecting that for a made in Mexico guitar.
Been playing this thing non stop since I brought it home. I think I'm in love.
Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty
A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.
Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.
How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
- Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
- Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
- No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
- Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
- Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
- Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
- Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
- Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
- Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.
Purchasing additional years of coverage
Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.
If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:
- NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
- USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
- GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
- BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
