The Tele bridge pickup has a low end response that other guitars don't often have. Makes them sound huge when played through high gain amps.

@PittsburghTimeMachine Ай бұрын

Yeah I have 2 tele’s, one with some vintage 60’s stock pickups and the other with Texas specials. Both have a nice low end to them compared to my Strat’s stock pickups. I always thought Teles would be limited to just “twang” but mine are way more versatile than my Strat. I guess I’m a Tele guy.

@damienalvarez2957 15 күн бұрын

@@PittsburghTimeMachineI wrote off Teles as only for chicken pickers. Wasn’t till I decided to play one for funzies through a Marshall that I realized how hilariously wrong I was. They do everything, and that’s why I now own a butterscotch blonde Tele with the black pick guard. I’m actually reconsidering my need for a guitar with high output humbuckers at this point.

Jazzmasters are a dark secret awesome metal tone. The wide spongey tone but with clear high end is basically ideal for lower tunings. The new EMG Jazzmaster pickups are legitimately great too.

My question is, doesn’t the constant change of tuning ruin the intonation? Like an Ibanez would be ideal for metal while a tele could be for something else?

@polterheist77 Жыл бұрын

more like "x guitar is not best suited for x genre" and there's no doubt about that but some people have taken it to a point where they make it seem like its sacreligious to play a genre on a guitar it wasnt made for

@3rdStoreyChemist 9 ай бұрын

@@diego9681 If you change the tuning, then you need to adjust intonation. The guitar itself doesn’t matter. This is why it’s good to get a guitar for a specific tuning. Telecasters can be better for lower tunings because the extra high end helps retain clarity. Humbuckers were the default when Metal was still largely Standard tuning and that attitude has stuck around.

I use a Tele with single coils for playing Metal too. I used to try and do it with a Strat, but the Tele's bridge pickup has so much more tonal dynamics and clarity. Hank Shermann used stock Strats on the 90s Mercyful Fate albums. In The Shadows, Time, and Into The Unknown are 100% single coils.

I studied classical for a year .doing fingerstyle arrangements my whole guitar on acoustic. Im planning to play always I mean as usual .fingerstyle now on my telecaster ...Im hesitant to post covers because im a fingerstyle guitarist. What i play before are metal arrangements but 2 yrs ago it all sudden change due to mood change (love problems) .now I always play and want to play sad songs or ballad like cat steves and beatles).
