The Deluxe Nashville Telecaster is from the acclaimed Mexican division of the Fender empire. You should expect to pay about £400, although if you look around you might find a bargain!
What makes this guitar so different from other Telecasters is the fact that it has a third pickup between the two others. This, combined with a five way switch (taken straight from a USA strat) gives you a huge variety of sounds, from twangy pop, to dark melodic blues.
The pickups themselves are Tex-Mex (two tex-mex tele pickups, and one tex-mex strat pickup), which means that although made in Mexico, they have the same components as the American ones. The bridge pickup being very bright, getting bassier and bluesier as you switch towards the neck. All three pickups are adjustable, by screws, so that you can customize your sound by raising or lowering each one.
The maple neck has a standard 22 medium/jumbo frets, and is bolted on to the alder body, the neck is fitted with vintage tele tuners, and the bridge is a vintage 6 saddle, with adjustable pole pieces (that means you can raise and lower the strings by small amounts to suit your playing).
The guitar itself plays well sraight out of the box, with a smooth feel, the strings go through the body which gives great resonance, and although the neck will be too chunky for some of you Steve Vai and Satch fans, it will suit most of the modern pop/rock/indy styles very nicely, and if you like the Eagles, you'll be well away!
All in all, the Deluxe Nashville Tele is a great guitar for a greta price. If you are looking to upgrade, but don't have loads of cash, I would reccomend it! For the money you won't find be
