Allmänt

With the Japan-made Special Edition '62 Telecaster Black, you'll be getting your hands on quite a special instrument. Normally, Japanese Fenders don't reach the European market. As far as build quality and hardware go, they certainly live up to the standard set by their American cousins, but they're much more affordable. This particular Tele is based on the 1962 Telecaster, and features a real Fender Bigsby vibrato unit. Ideal for rock 'n' roll, surf and country music.

Fender Japan Special Edition '62 Telecaster: Construction

In building this Japanese SE Telecaster, the manufacturer closely adhered to the blueprint set by the original '62 Tele. That means you get the typical alder body, with the bindings that were common at the time, and a maple neck with a comfortable C profile. Furthermore, the neck is equipped with a 21-fret rosewood fretboard that gives the overall sound a bit more warmth. Two Vintage-Style single-coil pickups give it that typical Tele twang. Finally, there's the Fender Bigsby vibrato unit, for that famous subtle vibrato effect.

Fender Japan

Japanese Fenders are high-end instruments that were originally exclusive to the Japanese market. Luckily, Bax-shop has managed to procure a few of these Special Edition models just for you! These hand-built guitars are highly coveted all over the world for their combination of vintage design and high-quality finish. They have the looks of the American Vintage series, the build quality of the professional American Standard models, yet they're still amazingly affordable. Don't wait too long if you're looking for an affordable Telecaster with vintage specs because there aren't many of these to go around.

Ik heb deze gitaar net ontvangen. Het is spannend om een gitaar via postorder te kopen. Maar de gitaar is prima afgesteld. Het is een heel mooie maar vooral ook blitse gitaar. De witte binding en de Bigsby geven de gitaar een retro uiterlijk. Op de foto's is dat minder goed te zien dan in het echt. Deze SE '62 heeft dat typische Telecastergeluid. Ik heb het in de regel niet zo op "vintage style-stemmechanieken". Meestal is dat een eufemisme voor "niet-zo-goed-als-moderne mechanieken". Maar de mechanieken op dit instrument werken naar behoren. Kopers moeten er rekening mee houden dat je, behalve een inbussleuteltje, er geen accessoires bij krijgt (dus ook geen koffer).

I recently purchased this guitar having never seen or played it before. It was the appearance that hooked me at first, especially the Bigsby bridge and I thought it would be a great 'tool' to have at my disposal without having to go through the hassle of getting one fitted etc. and I have never owned a Telecaster so it was a case of kill two with one.

I have played plenty of these guitars in the past and as soon as I started to play it, it oozed everything typical about a Telecaster; very chunky sounding and things like the vintage-style machine heads made it all the more authentic to look at it. I have gigged with it a few times already and my bandmates have commented on what a sound it has.

The Bigbsy is subtle and works a treat for me as I'm not constantly dive-bombing, but if that's what you're after then the Bigsby is not for you.

Changing the strings is a bit challenging at first if you're not used to a Bigsby. This was quite irritating for me as I go through a lot more strings than most people, breaking the first one after only 3 days of receiving the guitar! However there are plently or tutorials and whatnot online but the way I see it, it's worth it for the Bigsby!

The intonation is near enough spot on and that's straight out of the box (I'm assuming it wasn't set up before I played it and that's also according to the specifications information) but I'm going to get the action lowered and a couple of other things but these are all personal adjustments.

All in all I'm well chuffed with this beauty and having played a Strat as my go to guitar for many years I think that might be about to change.... !
