Another benefit of the Tease over the Squier Debut is the FULL size body of the Tease vs the narrower body on the Squier Debut. Also the routing on the Tease has more real estate for different pickup combinations. Tease ST-1

Fantastic Deal On A Martin Acoustic-Electric!
Nice guitar... but that headstock, oof.
Starting to see a trend with pricing and it may only be the start. When your choice is between having food on the table or buying a new guitar we can see where this is going. The market is already flooded with guitars so much so that even Fender is going to start making fewer guitars. Keeping my powder dry for now in anticipation of even better deals to come. My guess is that there are a ton of barely played recently purchased guitars that are going to be available as people start to realize how hard it is to play the guitar start letting them go to pay the bills. We've all seen the used guitars priced higher then new so used prices have to come down if they want to sell so the market is going to capitulate, it's only a matter of time. When a brand new MIM Fender Tele can be had for less then $500 at retail like the one Joe pointed out recently, what's a fair price for used? Maybe $250-300? The used market could get very interesting in the near future.
Made in usa or China? Epiphone charging over 1k for made in China now.
USA for $599? China or Indonesia.
According to some of the reviewers on the Amazon site, it is made in China.
Only one left. Hopefully it will be gone before I succumb. I’m putting this in God’s hands as to whether or not I click the buy button:) awesome deal, Joe!
Adorama has already raised the price up to $624. I've got to get quicker at this. 😂
Thanks for the heads up!
Good video! I just can't understand why you don't get a bone or graphite nut for that price, it's just stupid.
Amazing deal!
Wish I can afford multiple expensive guitars. Some of the squire paranormal series are interesting, with different configurations. Even used, fenders still go for as much as when its on sale. Its worth buying new, unless you want an older made in mexico fender. Everyone is practically selling used for the price of new these days.
Thx Joe. Keep up the Search!!💪💥🤙
Wow that's a super sweet deal. Good looking out.
Wow -- best price! and in a color I've always wanted! Thx4 posting! Now to go test my self control.
How would you compare Tease Guitar to a Mex player series 🎸 for the money ❓
I would compare it to a Squier Affinity.
I know it's just the perspective, but the Debut look positively *tiny* next to the Tease.
Agreed. Video angle and it's a thinner body. 🙂
Great video! I don't like the name Tease. Who names these guitars? But I'll just stick with my Squier Affinity Stratocaster made in Indonesia.
7:35 this part of the demo reminds me of Adam Sandler's "Hanukkah Song" and now it's stuck in my head 😅 I bought a Debut Squier (for a fun project) and it's really nice on it's own... so to hear that the Tease is better in a lot of ways makes me want one even more lol Thanks as always Joe 👍
Playing both I much rather pay the little extra for the Tease you get much more guitar for the $145 it’s easily a $600 guitar
What about a comparison between the two tease models? St-2 and the st-1? The stainless frets are nice on the st-1, but the st-2 has alnico pickups and cheaper. The st2 has a lefty model, which I prefer.
This is the ST-1 SPR. It has Alnico pickups.
@AJgeartalk The ST-1 SPR has ceramic pick ups. Not Alnico. We wound those pick ups at the shop. Wax potted them for 45 minutes and sent them over seas to be duplicated. They output about 6 and are not tinny sounding because of the length of time they are dipped.
The only lefty Guitars we made were ST-1 units. A loaded Alnico 5 pick guard is about 25.00 on Amazon and drops right in. 11 screws out and 11 in and your all set.
Excellent job 👏
Poplar is a light wood Basswood can very heavy. I would lean towards the squire without playing either one.
As I stated in the video the Basswood and Poplar guitars weigh the same- 6.8 lbs.
ST-1 SPR has a swimming pool route for easy - simple loaded pick guard drop ins. The ST1 ( standard) does not. It also has nickel frets andcstandard tuners.
Why are you holding the guitar if you aren't going to play it? What a waste of time.
I'm a big cheerleader for Tease. I love mine and the fact that you can literally DM with the owner of the company in real time right on their website is a huge added value. Having said that, I will eventually grab a debut squier because I can't resist having one matte finish strat in my arsenal.
I bought a Debut Squier, and it is really nice. It was set up well, looks awesome and plays just as well as any other Squier... for $120 I definitely recommend it
@@SeanDS1989 Seems like most people who bought one are happy with them. I love all my Squiers so I'm confident I'll enjoy the debut once I have the budget for one!
I emailed the guy and he responded back with neck depth measurements. We really have to support people who work hard and make an effort. The Tease is clearly a better guitar, as you point out. Stainless steel frets? Are you kidding? Also, I prefer a bit more finish than less because it makes it easier to clean.
I like the new video title:)
They're both great Strats. If I had to pick one, it would be the tease. Tonewoods are irrelevant, but the tease has a full size body .... So literally more guitar for the money.💜
You’re right Joe, the Tease is better and once you buy a gig bag for the squire, you’re way ahead.
Good comparison. But who thinks up these names though? Tease?? I'd sooner buy a guitar named Cedarsky or Sparkfire or Echotone than one named Tease.
Tease is a play on the owner's name.... 😉
@@AJgeartalk I see said the blind man. But still, that name, which is very important, just doesn't do it. It's got no hook to reel people in.
@@carpathusI bought 2 Tease Guitar SBH HD because of Torsten's ( owner) view of customer service ❗ The name could have been a guitar, doesn't matter, it's the service behind the guitar ❗ In fact I don't do " budget" guitars for various reasons BUT again it's the customer service that matters. And I gotta say that the guitar is awesome ‼️
Also when someone says Goggle, you know what it is. Well goggle wasn't even a word before ‼️ Yet the whole world knows Goggle ‼️
Looks like it's gone from Reverb but still available on their website for $519
PAS: My go-to for new used...
Beautiful Tele!❤
I have wanted one of these for a long time. But after buying, I'm disappointed. I do like the neck, I like the Candy Apple color. But that's about it. Came in three boxes, which is suspicious to me. The weight was 8.2 lbs!. The volume knobs wiggles and is unstable. Fret buzz on E & A. I could go on and on. Plus it's going to be a pain repackaging. I kept saying I can fix it, but even with the low price I'm going to have to return.
Thanks Joe, just ordered this as well
I just bought this amp on musician friend for $217 tax included . It was on sale for $239 plus I think 10 or 20 percent for members plus I had 4 bucks of rewards 😂. $217.84 free shipping. Receiving it tomorrow can’t wait to plug my Headrush MX5 into it 🤘🏽👍🏽✌🏽
Good grief. It wasn't that long ago those were advertised at the big box stores for $849.99. If I didn't already have a new Butterscotch Blonde Player Tele I'd be all over that deal.
Wonder what the weight is... Nice guitar but I just bought 2 Tease SBH-HD Series T Style TUMMY CUT 13.0K Alnico V Humbucker guitars , black and purple.... so I can't do it
I really need a tele, had the same exact color in 2015ish MIM didn’t bond with it. Splurged on a Nash, loved it but couldn’t afford to keep it had to pay those dang NY taxes every year….not no more😎🤙
Great deal, Joe but … I just got this … Tiez, Taz, Tease?:) BTW … I had a chance to really play with it over the weekend, and I’m not a Fender or a Tele guy but … I love it! Tx, again!
Glad you're enjoying it Craig!
Very Cool, Thankyou Joe. Another Amazing Deal WOW. .... un-available to me in Australia of course. This Model $839- Australian. I Love Gretsch have 3 Electromatics and have my eye on another 'Used-As New Condition' Silver Jet Club $450- ..... I think for me a better deal than paying more for the Streamliner. I will get a Streamliner one day I am sure. All the Best. Cheers
Cheers brother! Hope all is well in the land down under!
Found some smokin' deals on Adorama. Never would have even known about them had it not been for this channel.
In the UK they are selling these for £129.99 which equates to $173.97 They are just not worth it here! you can get a Jet or a Harley Benton with much better specs for this money
It's strange that this one is a different shape than the blue and red West Creek 333
I broke down and bought this one. Thanks, it's a great deal!
That's a great deal. I bought the hard tail version in Claret Burst a few months ago from Adorama. It was $299. Adorama has some excellent deals from time-to-time.
Maybe a lot of fellows cannot afford a $1200 Fender guitar!
Squire are made by fender, a lot of people don't concider a squire a fender but they are wrong "squire by fender"
Thats a good deal and I love the finish
Thanks for the videos, highly appreciated. Always great deals you show
I wonder if these color is like the equivalent in the vehicle world where they say “gray” is their scratch/dent/accident in the factory re-dos. I know that was probably a myth back in the day, but from their listing that’s the only one on sale🤷🏻♂️
I have this guitar with humbuckers, that's a pretty good price!
I have mixed feelings about Gretsch. I love the models without the Bigsby but I feel the cheaper import Bigsby's are not the best quality (although definitely more stable than the similarly imported "licensed by Floyd Rose" tremolos you find on cheaper Jackson and Ibanez guitars). Im more of a metal/grunge player so I got rid of my Gretsch but they are gorgeous looking guitars and their filter'tron pickups are awesome.
Gretsch are the wrong guitars for grunge/metal. This model has extremely good build quality and finishing.
