Well done!

That’s a nice guitar, congrats. Too bad about the volume knob set screw. Could you drill it out without doing any damage? And you play it well!!

Thanks for this information, it's really useful. By the way, does anyone have problems with the tap tempo going a bit slower than the actual tempo at which you tap?

Vintera my ass I have a first batch Road Worn I like it just fine white pickguard reliced a lot I don’t pay no more mins just play it

I have a tele similar to that one (Dif color) and I really enjoy it as well - I would love to have you show how to play the bit from 15:20 (love that style and am trying to teach myself). Do you have a lesson or can you point me in the right direction for learning that...?

Thanks for sharing your thoughts about the Road Worn Telecaster, and details about your signal chain. As of late 2023, it doesn't look like Fender is selling Road Worn Tele's anymore, but I was able to buy a 2022. If you're into the Telecaster vibe, it's a steal of a deal. Awesome tone. Vintage neck and good hardware throughout. Nitro-cellulose finish... are you kidding me! You almost have to look twice to see the relic treatment, but that subtlety just adds cachet imo. Fender has emulated, in a faithful way, a vintage Fender guitar that currently sells for more than US$100,000. Only one in a million will ever own one of the originals, but for the rest of us, this is a really good option.

I have one of these, I have made a few changes on mine too .. but ive never had much love for the neck I feel that is where the guitar falls short .. the body had some type of sheen over it guessing it was part of the relic-ing , I used my buffer and cleaned it off and polished it up which gave it a better finished ..

Amazing! Great video! Now I want one.. 👍🏻

I’ve had a ‘68 Strat and a Gold Top LP. Then I got on the Tele train. I’m now Tele for (the rest of my) life.

I have a Charger HB which I really love. For my next guitar I'm highly considering a Jetstream 390. That or a Fender Tele Player, or G&L ASAT Tribute Classic. But if this thing can do Tele sounds then that might settle it!

🎉🎉🎉

Reverb is better than V40 Duchess. But the colour of this amp is particularly ugly to me...

I just played one ...so nice

I use a wampler Plexiglas drive deluxe for more tonal options

I have the same setup but I have two flashbacks and a MRX reverb I'm in total heaven with my sound

Dude, this video is the perfect combo of informative and useful, specs/playing. Really appreciate you doing this and enjoy your playing. Think I'll be picking one of these up :)

cheers

Wow how good u are my friend

I sold my old odr and tried bought a reissue and I don’t think it’s the same. The old one felt/sounded more like an amp. I wondering if the Shanks will do it. The Belle is good but not the same. Or maybe I just remember it being better than it was.

Highly recommended pedal addition!! If you’ve ponied up the $$$ for ARDX20, do yourself a favor and get this extension immediately!

Very well done, sir. I like the stock directions. All the info really is there, but it’s cryptic-straight from the mind of the Japanese guy who developed it. Very boutique. If you read it AFTER you know how it works, it makes perfect sense. ❤

The Vinteras are great guitars.Just for the record though the Alder isn't vintage correct for a blonde 1950s Tele...those were always Ash.In fact all blonde Teles and Strats were Ash into the 1960s.Alder was introduced in later 1956 for the sunburst Strats and the custom color ones.Most Teles were blonde so therefore Ash.The Telecaster custom with the binding was the first Alder spec Tele introduced in 1959 and it was sunburst(unless a custom order occured).The older Road Worn Teles of the 2010s were made of Ash but now due to Fender's very limited use of Ash they went with Alder for this 1950s Vintera Tele...not vintage correct but still a very nice guitar!

I fitted a Wilkinson bridge with compensated brass saddles on my tele sounds so much better also the intonation is pretty well spot on.

I was hoping someone did a comparison between the Shanks and the Belle...you delivered! Thanks With the price factored in, for me, the Wampler is a choice I can be very happy with,

I saw a jet stream today as I was returning a prs silver sky se. hated the color dragon fruit. I’m going back to check it out. Might be the one I’m looking for. Those pick ups and tone controls are so interesting. Subscribed.

fantastic guitar great demo!

I run a tumnus into a wampler deluxe plexi drive so same but different order. Great pedals hey

Reverend Guitars are great. Chicago Music Exchange and Wildwood guitars have some great special editions too.

I like open drives and for me, the Belle has been such a great pedal. Definitely the best drive pedal I've used in a while. The only other drive I may like a bit more in that small form factor is the Menatone Red Snapper

Hello , have you tried the vintera 50 s standard ? Do you know how it s good versus this road worn ?

Greetings from Tacoma, Washington. The instructions for the AMAZE1 are atrocious. You solved my issue with this thing inside three minutes! Hugely grateful. Subscribed.

After owning for a while, which one do you like the best?

Cool guitar and the specs are pretty amazing for the money. I saw one in Sonic Blue a couple of weeks ago and I knew I had to have it. I loved (almost) everything about it. The only thing I asked for was a set of Wilkinson compensated brass saddles and another thing I want to do is to have a qualified person to replace the plastic nut for a bone nut. Besides that, I'm extatic of joy. The pickups sound amazing to me. I compared them to lots of other pickups (on UA-cam, so not in real life), but everytime I thought these pickups sounded better than the expensive 'boutique pickups'. A set of Lollars came close. They seemed to be a little more lifely, but after two or three notes I couldn't tell the difference anymore. So I'll stick with the original pickups. Maybe one day I'll go for a Custom Shop Telecaster, but I doubt I ever will. 😎❤️

Tele with the rosewood looks great.

I have one of these vintera worn 50’s in lake placid blue as well as a 60’s vintera worn 60’s strat. Love them. But both had issues big time with fret sprout d/t the neck basically being bare wood. Very susceptible to humidity changes. Had to do all the fret ends on both and seal the neck with some boiled linseed oil. Buffed up with 15000 grit micro mesh after a few coats. Now both necks are very stable and I love the tele. The u neck is perfect with the 7.25” radius. The strat is thin C and I hate the 7.25” with that thin of a neck. But the tele is a keeper. Pickups are good. I did swap mine for a nocaster bridge and twisted tele neck like danish pete’s purple tele. But just be away of how raw/bare these reliced necks are.

what type of modulation is it? Do you think its worth it? easy to use?

Hey hey. Commenting from BC Canada. I’m a dyed in the wool Tele guy - 5 of them in my electric stable of 10 guitars. I was so close to buying one of these! Great value! But I controlled myself - lol. But just last week, I brought home a Fender Japan JV 50’s Modified Telecaster! An amazing guitar! Satin finish, soft V neck carve, 50’s voiced alnico p/u’s and a 4 way switch with a push/pull on the tone for out of phase tones in 2 positions. A VERY traditional 50’s Tele with super cool wiring yielding 6 unique tones! I’m super happy! Gotta love them “T’s” (I’m NOT a relicing fan, at all, but the Vintera’s are quite well done. Disappointing screw issues, though!)

Thanks dude you just helped me decide on my next axe. I got the HB charger and it is a joy to play and the BC knob makes it easy to dial in what tone I want at the time from the pickups. Reverend make really good guitars

I don't think they used a blonde finish on alder guitars, usually on ash bodies. Get a vintage Road Worn tele, if you can still find one. That version has an ash body and is more period correct.

Well done.

You are enabling me GAS... That Tele sounds GREAT.

I owned a Reverend Crosscut. Their guitars are nice, but ugly and overpriced.

The Les Paul comparison blew my mind. The other two are pretty close, but the Gibson one actually shocked me. I'm on the verge of buying a Contender 290 to fill the void of a Les Paul Special Tribute sound, and this def pushed me closer towards buying one...

Very nice review! Reminded me of why Reverends are my favourite guitars (I bought 6 over the past 4 years) and at the same time why I don't like their stock PUs (Railhammers included). Joe Naylor just seems to be into slightly overwinding and spikey attacks. In your comparison for instance I hear sweeter harmonics, a slightly softer attack and a more homogeneous sound overall in every guitar compared to the Jetstream. It's almost like there's a (cheap) buffer in the signal chain everytime I hear the Reverend. Any way. Keep up the good work!

Intro was beautiful dude, nice playing! Is that a song or just improv?

Will Texas Specials fit that tele?

Bridge p/u on the 60's and i'm sold!!! Great demo my friend!!!!

Cool video, nice board! I have a similar board of mini pedals (PedalTrain Nano), but I daisy-chain the pedals and use a Godlyke Powerall to power them. I’ll have to check out that Power Box Lithium!

Sounds better without the pedals…. Or maybe just a touch of the tumnus.

I’ve been eyeing those but haven’t been able to touch one yet. I’m just worried about hitting my fingers on the middle pickup, in which case I may want the 290. I have a Kingbolt so I want so I’d like a different pickup option.
