    I recently did an episode with Jeff McErlain talking about his journey in Les Pauls and I thought it would be great fun to do the same with my good friend Zac from "Ask Zac". Come and hang out and let's talk about Teles!

    my only electric guitars for 40 years were Telecasters. The first I bought used in 1971...it was a well used 1967 blonde with maple neck which I had to sell around 2013 to fix some stuff on the house. The local dealer then sold it to Keith Richards when the Stones played in Milwaukee. I also had a 2001 Am. Std by then...and a month ago I picked up a new old stock 2011 1952 reissue. Only other electric in my arsenal is a LP Studio Tribute...nice guitar...but it's not a Telecaster.

  • @phillipasby9202
    @phillipasby9202 Год назад +2

    Well this was fantastic fun! I remember those original Burton signatures and it just didn't really seem like a tele.... cause it really wasn't! My first tele was a real red headed stepchild - 1983 Telecaster Elite - only made for 2 years it was ... well ... different. Kind of a dog really in some regards but wish I had it still cause they've gotten valuable. But I've always had a tele of some flavor since 1984. Some good, some great, some average. I won't lie Keith I've more than once seen a Salen floating about on the used market and been sorely tempted. I'd like to try that neck before pulling the trigger but as an old Steinberger fan I can't pretend the blend of two of my favorite guitar designs doesn't have a strong appeal!

    This was maybe my favorite chat you have done other than the one with David Grissom which I have watched twice. Good stories and info and Zac’s love of the Telecaster is such a cool thing and he has a great collection of really good ones. Many people in this group would love to have just one of those teles, let alone all of them. I really appreciate what both of you guys are doing. Thanks!!!

    Back in the early 80's I had a mini-flying V made by Phil Kubicki and it was a cool little guitar. Unfortunately it went into a pawn shop and I was never able to get it back out.

    Nice video and guest. I'm almost certain the earliest '52 reissue Teles (officially called only "Vintage Telecaster" as the model name back then) was 1982, not 1981. The "Vintage Telecaster" was the first of the reissue models to hit the streets and there was a long delay between its announcement and its release. Edited to add: Soon thereafter came the '57 and '62 Strat reissues, '57 and '62 Precision Bass reissues and '62 Jazz Bass reissue.

    • @maggieo
      @maggieo Год назад +1

      There are , as they were officially known back then, 52RI Telecasters, that were built in 1981, but made it into stores in 1982. I had one, it was great.

    • @anthonyc1883
      @anthonyc1883 Год назад +1

      @@maggieo "Vintage Telecaster" is the only name name on the official instruction manual that came with mine. I still have that manual and saw it again only a few months ago.

    There's one thing I don't understand about James Burton. He's said that he didn't like a middle pickup since it got in his way. But his signature teles have three pups.

    It's ironic, in hearing about Zac's Pentecostal upbringing, it's THAT corner of American Christianity (I'm referring to the white church therein) that went all-in on electric
    worship first, vis a vis Hillsong, Bethel, etc., though it did take a while. We evangelicals at the time were told to steer clear of worldly music and card-playing and heck, even bowling, fer crissake!
