I bought this MIM tele a couple weeks ago & it really surprised me with how low the action is & how I can get a fat sound out of it. Now I've always liked the Mexican made Tele's , next to a US made one there really the next best thing. As a matter of fact I've owned both US & MIM & there's some I can't tell the difference between & this is one of them. I've been running it through a fender blues jr for practice & it's a great combination. For the price i paid & how good of a guitar it is i really got a steal. I couldn't be more happy.

I love the LPB bodies, but I've discovered that my Fender standard LPB body is a 4 piece alder. Perhaps Fender decides to hide 4 piece bodies with their hottest-selling colors, while leaving the preferred 2 piece tone beauties to the translucent finishes. The MIM pickups sometimes are thin-sounding. If you've ever watched a video of construction of the MIM Fenders, you'll see that speed is their number one goal. Still, these are generally a lot of guitar for the money.

I mean it’s a Telecaster. It has a repaired headstock but I can’t see where it was damaged. It’s used also it’s broken in. My go to was a MIC Telecaster which is sweet. This American Telecaster is lighter but just as sweet. I’ve replaced all my “foreign” made guitars with American made. Kids are gone, house is paid off. I’m doing things I could never afford guitar wise.

I bought this MIM (Made in Mexico) Fender Standard Telecaster to have a good guitar at a low price. Also, I wanted a guitar I could modify and improve. I knew the MIM Fenders are not of the same quality as the American Fenders so I wasn't under any illusions when I bought the instrument. To my surprise, it is better than I'd expected. I've had MIM guitars before and the problem is the quality is inconsistent. Some are good while others show sloppy craftsmanship. You never know when you buy one of these guitars so it's a bit of a gamble. I made an offer in "best offer" and got the guitar new for $300. Frankly, I was surprised they accepted my offer, but since it was a floor model I think the store wanted to move it out of their inventory. On this particular guitar the overall work is good but the pickups are weak. They don't have the strength of an American Fender, however, that is something that can be corrected. I plan on installing Rio Grande pickups to replace the rather weak Fender pickups. A Dirty Harry in the bridge and a Muy Grande in the neck should do the trick. They'll cost me around $160 for the pair, about $50 for the labor and I should have a pretty good guitar for around $500 total once all is said and done.Read full review
I have both a 2006 MIM Strat, and now the MIM '69 Telew thinline RI, and I love them both. I have 2 other Fender Strat's, both of them are MIA 1996 Lonestar Strat's, and I have to say that I would certainly put my MIM Strat up against them anyday. Of course I did change the pup's, but not because The others were bad sounding, but because I was going for a particular sound, and I found a good deal on a set of Duncans. But the subject is the Tele; I can find nothing to complain about with this guitar, in fact I love the tone, especially of the two pick-up's mixed. It has a woderful bluesy quality to it that I absolutely can't get enough of, and the quality of the workmanship from below the border is superb. Mine came stock with a flame paint job on the body and headstock! No kidding, and I've never seen another like it! No wonder Muddy Waters chose the Tele, I'm surprised more blues players don't. If you're thinking of a Tele (or a strat) don't be afraid to buy one that say's "Made in Mexico" on the headstock.Read full review
