Sweet-sounding TL. I have to thank you for that riff around 18.00 mins. Loved adding that to my favorites. If I purchase this TL, I will likely take a router to the back and lighten it a bit.

I was 16 or 17 and just learning to play guitar. I had a classical Sears catalog acoustic. I went to a pawn shop and saw a 12 string acoustic, can't remember the brand but it held tune and sounded great. Paid $35 and was on my way. This was in '89 or '90, so no internet. I had no clue how to tune the damn thing lol. I just assumed that every string was tuned normal like EADGBE. I started taking lessons and took my 12 string with me. My guitar teacher who was also a friend laughed when he played it. I learned that day how to properly tune it. I loved that guitar. One day I was playing it outside and dropped it on the concrete and snapped the neck. RIP my old friend lol.

I have this one, same color. I like it a lot, but tuners and nuts needed to be replaced on mine. Unfortunately, the stock tuners turned out to be better than all three sets of the locking tuners I got to replace them. Oh well. Still a really good guitar for the price. I highly recommend to anyone thinking of getting one of these to consider replacing the tuners with decent quality locking tuners. It helps tremendously with string changes.

Great-sounding tele! But what exactly is "engineered rosewood composite"? Does the body contain any actual rosewood?
@JimmyStewart1
@JimmyStewart1 3 күн бұрын
@@jimmyj4811 It’s a good question JimmyJ and one that I don’t positively know the answer to. I believe the fretboard is rosewood. I think the rest of the body/neck is some type of “molded/engineered” wood. Obviously very solid and certainly looks the part. I don’t think they used any veneer for the top/back nor pieces as I can not find any seams at all except for the obvious “middle” which gives the impression of a “pancake” build like the originals that Fender did. I have asked of course, but this is basically the only info I am getting from FF. Whatever they used, it seems to have worked well. It’s possible that they made up a formula that uses bits, pieces, saw dust, shavings of different types of wood, pulp and resin to form the body/neck. Sand and stain…but I am only speculating at this point in how it was done. Thanks so much for stopping into the channel. Much thanks man….🎸👍

@@ranman58635 Inflation…no, not really. Inflation just makes everything cost more as the value of your currency is worth less today than it did yesterday. In the used guitar market, pricing is based on player perception and supply/demand. How many 59 LP Honeybursts were made…how many “NoCasters” etc…etc….funny thing is, not all “old vintage” guitars were good guitars. In the case of Firefly, they are doing things right. Supplying well built, budget instruments that one can use/mod to their hearts content without breaking the bank. Not “overproducing” any one model, which keeps demand up. People walk into their local Guitar Center and see a nice FF 338 or LP/SP hanging on the wall with a price tag of $295 and the Epiphone hanging next to it at $385-$400. I am talking used now…they play both and realize the FF plays/sounds just as nice and offer GC $275 for the FF guitar. Sold they say! They didn’t realize they could go online and buy a new 338 for $189 - $219 and even with shipping, come out ahead. Happens every day…especially with Firefly as they are a smaller brand with limited models and many different finishes that become hard to get once the batch is gone. As far as budget guitars and resale value, they certainly hold their own in that respect. 🎸👍

@@davisworth5114 Thanks so much for watching and commenting. Yes, it’s a bit on the “heavy” side…I was hoping for a bit lighter however as I state in the video, I have no plans on doing any extended sets with it strapped up. Truly appreciate your stopping into the channel and enjoy that Jay Turser! 🎸👍
