If this Tele was made in the USA it would cost $2000+. Compared to an Elite or an Ultra, this offers just as many tonal options. I like the amber color too. The fact that it has the belly cut, tapered neck joint, and front binding are all bonus features. Well done Fender!

Today is her eighth birthday! I picked her up and ran through all of my daily drills and fell in love again.

I hadn't picked this guitar up in a few months (I now own about 30 guitars) and was so pleased at how well it plays and sounds.

I stuck around. Thanks for publishing this review. I'm sold on this guitar. It's a Fender - It's a Gibson - It's a Gretsch

That Floydish intro 😍😍

I am a returning new guitarist who has not played in over 40 years. I purchased the Fender Telecaster Custom FMT HH and the Fender Cd-60s as my first two instruments. I enjoyed your tone report on the FMT HH very much.thank you for taking the time to product that particular video. I found it informative and delightful to watch. Your musicianship is impeccable, Inspiring and delightful.

You play very well, and have shown the beautiful tones of this guitar better than anyone else.

Yup! Love it! I picked mine up Thursday. I'm parking my Ibanez a while. As far as a traditional hard core telecaster, I'm thinking about a kit.

Great demo great playing' the red tele with the p90 it looks awesome.

Beautiful guitar & playing!.

Great playing really. I bought this one in red after seeing your video. So thank you to help me on my choice. I love your intro in the style of Gilmour.

1st I have seen of your videos. I was looking for reviews of the Telecaster FMT HH . Here I am. Really enjoyed the demo. I did subscribe btw ! Thank you for sharing this review. A different take than some and I liked it. 👍

Sounds awesome! Excellent review.

Just ordered one. Thanks for the review.

just bought this guitar in red, after watching this vid.. Thanks..

Just bought a black cherry burst on reverb today for 600. I’ve been looking at this guitar for almost 2 years and finally decided that I had to get it. I love the tele look with the modern comfort carved. I usually build my guitars from kits but no one makes a set neck tele kit. I may swap the pick ups and put my Duncan Saturday night specials in it.

Love the review of the the FMT Tele. Thx!😊

Nice playing, early on, David Gilmourish! I have the 2007 FMT HH Limited Edition Spalted Maple...great guitar.

Diggin your groove! I just ordered one those Tele's and can't wait to get my hands on her!

Been eyeing this guitar for a while. this video might of just sold me

Amazing.

awsome guitar

Great vid...you sure can make her sing. Thanks

That totally Awesome Fender Telecaster FMT/HH

Beautiful playing. Just ordered one from Sweetwater 2 days ago.

I have this Tele and it is fantastic!

Wonderful playing and wonderful tone. I had the first run of these with the fender humbuckers in it back in 2002 but I never made it sound this good. I’m sure you would make a first act sound great.

My brother just got this guitar today and it sounds and plays amazing!

I have this same guitar. That 59 pickup in this thing is impressive. You sounded great with it. This guitar offers up a bunch of different tone possibilities. I agree with you on the neck. It does feel a bit odd at first. Almost big and flat.

Found this video because I'm thinking of buying one of these models. They seem very good but seem to drop in volume with certain pickup configurations. But that can be dealt with by turning the volume knob a bit. I have say I enjoyed the Gilmour sound you had going in this video.

Interesting Guitar, versatile, some nice tones. I have have my heart set on a PRS Zach Myer, but it's a hot item, sold out everywhere. I'd love to check one of these as maybe a alternate. Thanks for your review...

I’m officially drooling over that tone🤪 Great video sir. I’m in the process of researching this thing ever since I stumbled across it looking for that perfect tele. I’m definitely getting this guitar. Thanks again for the great demo!

I can't find a reason why there aren't more people to review this guitar. It's been on my wishlist, seems like the better option for the price over the Mexican model.

Super !

I saw this guitar for sale this morning on a uk website. I think its going to be my next investment.

I ordered one of these yesterday. There was only 2 in the shop. Should be here later on today

👏👏👏👏

Hi there! I know there are tonal differences but between these Amber FMT and the Sandblasted Daphne Blue (with the classic 2 single coils config.) Sweetwater exclusive Telecaster, wich one would you pick??? Awesome technique and great vid btw!! Cheers from Peru!

Killer intro.

I have been wanting a telecaster for about 5 months now for the basic tried and true telecaster traits. I was very interested in Fender's player model. Really liked it. Then my heart was broken. I discovered the fmt tele. Looks like a tele, but not a traditional tele. What I set out for. I'm afraid the Tele player will have to wait😢. This custom tele fmt hh will be my new guitar.😄🍕🍺🏆

Tasteful gilmourish licks - YEAAAA! - this reads a bit awkward- hahaha.

Too bad no tremolo or strat version with the flat radius f-board. Wonder how difficult it would be to have a tremolo installed?

I have this guitar in black cherry burst and I just love it. It's definitely one of the nicest guitars Fender makes. Aside from the gorgeous smooth tone it produces, the craftsmanship is downright astounding, especially at this price point. The gorgeous archtop flame maple top, matching finished headstock, the the set neck, the cream binding, and THE BEST fret work I've ever felt in any guitar just screams premium quality. They didn't skimp on anything. That block saddle bridge is something special too. the strings just sustain for days. And all this for about the same price as a MIM player series? Forget about it. If you ran through the list of features, material, and build to me, I would've said you're talking about a $4k Les Paul. To know it's a $725 Fender was a jaw dropper for me. You won't find better value in any guitar anywhere at this price point

ok k..I came to hear the FMT HH which you make sound excellent..thank you.. but, I really like the cap.. lol.. who made your cap? link?

Can you make another video like the intro to this one? I listen to this atleast once a month.

My Amber Korean comes tomorrow

Thanks, this was what I needed to convince myself that the Epi 62 Bonamassa es-335 I recently bought (the last one I would ever buy, smirk) actually was not the last one. Don't know how long I can withstand the urge to get it. Probably not more than a few months. By the way, very nice backing track in the beginning, have to search and find one like that. One question, that guitar strap you have, which one is that? Looking for one that is comfortable on my shoulder that will not cause my left arm/hand to disfunction.

Thanks for the great review! After owning this and the Jim Adkins Tele, which one do you gravitate towards?

Can I ask you which guitar you would recommend of these two: The Fender Special Edition Custom Telecaster FMT HH you're playing here or a Fender Player Stratocaster HSS with Floyd Rose? I am new to guitar. Thank you!

Beautiful. Sold!! I just need to know your signal chain on this, please!

Just so you know I bought this identical guitar, color and all.

what kind of amp are you using? Great video...

What are you playing through? Sounds great.

I’m wondering to get this or the Tele Boxer made in Japan? Can you help me decide? The boxer is more expensive and has less. That I don’t understand. I’m a “decent” player.

Everywhere I have read says this guitar is great for people with small hands... because of the 41mm nut (normally guitars are 43mm) and the 15.75 inch neck radius which means its thinner than chunky ones like Les Paul which is 12 inches radius......BUT YOU SAY THIS GUITAR HAS A CHUNKY NECK? I'm confused.

Does anyone remember 04-08' the Showmaster HH that had the same pickups BUT the flame maple top? SOOOO SICK.

How are the frets? Ends nice and polished? Thanks. Nice playing

Which tube amp are you using for this video?

If you took a Telecaster,an SG, and a PRS, and smashed em together at lightspeed, you'd get a custom Telecaster FMT HH.

The neck has a compound radius

@ kzfaq.info/get/bejne/m8xhe7Wqytm5nYk.html can you give us an example of what that is chunky compared to? I have several Strats and my 05' American Deluxe has a 'modern c' and is the most comfortable neck I have ever played. Other Fenders have a 'modern c' or 'c shape' and feel very different. I wish Fender gave more details on neck profiles. Great video btw!

is the same guitar made in korea worse than made in indonesia ?

Hi Mr Mooseboy, I'm going to get me one tommorrow. I can't wait. One question: this guitar is okay for playing blues? Kind Regards Vincent from The Netherlands

I'm on the fence about this guitar. It's really pretty and it's light, but in all the videos it has a somewhat thin, hard, bright sound, without enough meat to it. A single coil Tele usually sounds meatier, let alone an HB. Nice playing, though.

Don't know your knowledge of neck profile. C shape chunky? Low profile 153/4 ? SPOOKY.
