Well I didn't expect I would move from Los Angeles to The Netherlands and find an amazing tele on par with Fender, Nash, etc. What a wonderful surprise! Initially I was nervous that there wouldn't be as many guitar lovers (coming from LA I feel like this is understandable) but this Haar Trad T makes me feel like I landed in a place with a passionate guitar community that I hope to be a part of soon. Check these guitars out if you haven't already!

I own a 2019 Trad T in Sonic Blue, heavy relic, with rosewood fretboard, birdseye maple neck and Amber pickups. I had to rework the shielding first, but the sound and playability are amazing! A truly great guitar!
Ah nice, glad you love it too!
Sounds really good! Nice to see a new video from you :)
Thanks!
Awesome, thanks for the heads up!
You’re welcome!
Fantastic playing man! Checking out Haar too!
Thanks Sean, highly recommend Haar teles!
Yay! Congrats on the new guitar! I've always loved double bound teles. Obv you've been looking for a pink guitar for a while too lol
Thanks! Its certainly a fun assortment of colors now :)
Really nice guitar!!
Thanks!
Sounds great, looks great. Of course I'm sure you'd make a Squier Bullet sound great, dude. Thanks for sharing, I had never heard of this brand before!
Would highly recommend! Worth the shipping but also if you happen to be in Europe it’d be a great addition to a trip :)
I've got a pretty similar Trad T! Only difference I went for an ebony board.
Best T I've ever played and the guys at Haar are awesome!
They certainly are! Also I bet an ebony board looks great against the pink body
Lovely playing and sound! I have pretty similar one with amber pus
Nice! Any videos where I can see it in action?
Not at the moment. Yet i live in eindhoven, if you stop by you can check it yourself@@ElliottKleinguitar
Yeees! I love my two Haar Strats! I love to see that they are getting more attention! IMO they are equal as the Fender CS and much better than Nash.
I can’t wait to try out some of the strats! I’ve only seen the teles in the shops so far
I'd say better than Fender Custom Shop and up there with Fender Master Builds.
My Haar Classic S is one of the best guitars I've owned. I've had over 40 guitars over the years, Custom Shop models, American, British, Japanese models. PRS, Fender, Gibson, Yamaha, Ibanez and some from boutique brands. I can honestly say the Haar holds its own against any of them.
They’re certainly great!
Thank you for the demo, I can't seem to find this guitar anywhere online and the inventory on Haar's website seems to be empty, can you let me know in which stores in the Netherlands I can find them? thank you.
I would check Reverb.com and gregsguitars.com . The Fellowship of Acoustics has them, Dijkmans Muziek, Van de Moer, Musik Produktiv too
Shell pink? It looked sonic blue to me for a minute. Color blindness sucks. That neck pickup really reminds me that the Broadcaster was first built for jazz. And oh man, the gainy sounds are so great. I think this guitar really fits you well. Congrats!
I think so too, it’s definitely like three guitars in one!
Hi Elliot, great video! Do you know if they have nitro or polyester finish on the trad t?
Thanks Jakob! I’m not 100% sure but my guess is nitro
@@ElliottKleinguitar okay thank you!😃
Hi, anyone knows if there is any difference between Haar Trad -T necks? I have played two of them and they felt different even both were "C" shaped. Thanks =D
I've played a handful as well and they have all been C shaped, just slightly different almost due to different sanding jobs really - aka minor differences
Hi Elliot, could you share detailed specs. I´m trying to get one but looks difficult find all the real specks (at least on internet). I´m assuming the neck radius is 9.5¨ or 10¨but not sure. Also the tickness at 1st fret and at 12th fret is unknown for me. Thanks in advance!!
I havent even seen the thickness measurements for Haars anywhere unfortunately, but all the necks are medium-thick C shapes (that Ive played). The radii are usually compound and either 7.25-9.5, 8.5-10.5 or 9-11 compound like mine. Gregsguitars usually has a photo of the spec sheet that gets shipped with the guitar. Hope that helps!
Do you notice any difference(s) between this PLEK’d guitar and other guitars who are not treated with PLEK?
Depends on the guitar, really great fret work will be similar to a Plek, while terrible fret work would definitely be a noticeable difference
Do you know, which Kloppmann-Pickups are in there?
They were the BC-49. Really great sounding set
Have you ever tried any other Kloppmanns? I'm in the process of getting a Trad-T and I cant decide if I want the BC49 or the TL50. There is no store nearby, so I have to rely on UA-cam Reviews to decide😂
@@spiky7777777 reading the descriptions back to back it just seems the 49 are sweeter sounding, I feel like I can often add more treble and whatnot, but getting a nice non-brittle sound is tough if the pickups are very bright. Depends on your amp/modeler/preference/pedals though
Hey man! Any chance you're selling this guitar? :P
Heya! Not this one no, if you want to DM me on instagram I could certainly try and assist you getting one or a similar good tele
@@ElliottKleinguitar thanks for the response. No worries !
