Fazley FTL218TB Electric Guitar (Tobacco Burst)

Great looking guitar, no doubt about it. Requires new strings and a basic set up to get it absolutely right although a beginner will be happy enough with it out the box. Pickups are fairly quiet but ok. Nice weight and good paint job. Definitely belies the low price.

I have bought several low price telecaster clones to use as project guitar platforms for nodding. The Fazley classic is definitely the best of the bunch and I have bought two. Both were excellent for the price and with a little setting up they are great players. They have a good weight with the Basswood body and the poly finish is excellent with the lovely underlying wood grain really popping. The only negative comment would be that they are top loaders which is an aesthetic point rather than sonic as they do have that Telecaster sound.You can't really go wrong with these guitars in the sub £100 category. I will more than likely be buying another.Lets hope that their popularity doesn't push the prices up.

This guitar was actually a lot better than I had expected it to be for the price. The fit and finish on mine is very good indeed (i.e. no paint blemishes/scratches/dings, or glue traces). My only gripe was that although there were no sharp fret ends along the neck (which were all rounded perfectly), unfortunately there was one small problem with one fret (15th), insofar as it was slightly raised on D, A, & G - but a little filing soon sorted that out. The only other not great points (not about the guitar itself), were that firstly, there were no Hex/Allen Keys included with my guitar at all - I literally just received a guitar in a box. Secondly, I made the mistake of using Hermes (UK) as my courier. I've never had anything approaching good service from them and this was sadly no exception. However, this is obviously nothing to do with the guitar itself, and nothing to do with Bax either.
So overall, I am very pleased with this purchase and I think it is very good value for the price.

Acquistata per il prezzo bassissimo, impossibile da trovare da qualunque altra parte. Finché non l'ho ricevuta non credevo nemmeno fosse in scala 1:1...
L'ho presa per un progetto "relic" che ho in mente da un pò ma a dire il vero, ora che l'ho vista, ci penserò qualche mese prima di "rovinarla". La finitura del corpo è veramente ottima! Quel nero con il Tobacco-burst rosso mi fa impazzire...
I lati positivi finiscono comunque quì.
Il manico non è bello come il corpo. Legno chiarissimo e forse non ha neanche una verniciatura all'esterno. Provvederò a scurirlo con uno smalto color noce per legni.
Così com'è è arrivata è praticamente insuonabile, alcuni tasti sono più alti di altri ed occorre dare un'action alle corde di 5-6mm per non farla friggere. Prima di verniciarlo eseguirò una rettifica dei tasti in modo da livellarli e poi cercherò di sistemare il trussrod.
Il potenziometro del tono non gira regolare, gratta all'inizio. Mi sembra che il tono non funzioni proprio...non noto differenza mettendolo al minimo ed al massimo.
Uno dei due retainer delle corde sulla paletta è montato storto e le corde non sono dritte nel tratto che va dalle due meccaniche al capotasto.
Una vite del battipenna è avvitata storta a causa del foro sul corpo non allineato con quello del battipenna.
Comunque, non farò il reso di sicuro! dove ne trovo un'altra a 64€? Mi ci divertirò a "metterla a posto" questo inverno.

Echt een zalige gitaar voor een belachelijk lage prijs

j ai reçu la guitare que j ai tester de suite et a ma grande surprise j e suis agrèablement surpris pour ce prix rien a dire rèpond bien a l esprit telecaster qualitèe bluffant son rien a redire du coup je vais me rachetez quelque gratte qui me font envie sans ce ruinez et procure autant de plaisir je recommande vraiment cette marque et le service livraison a tant emballage ok bref super heureux je prèpare mon nouveau panier

Ik ben nu, op mijn 61e, begonnen met gitaarspelen en heb deze gitaar gekocht als instapmodel. DE uitvoering is mooi om te zien en hij speelt lekker. Zelfs mijn gitaarleraar vind dat ik hiermee een goede aankoop heb gedaan, altijd leuk om te horen!
Deze gitaar is zeker geschikt voor de beginner en heeft een prima prijs/kwaliteitverhouding, gewoon een topgitaar!!

De Fazley FTL218TB is gewoonweg een uitstekende gitaar voor elke gitarist die op zoek is naar een goedkoop en toch kwalitatief alternatief.
De pickups geven een lichte ruis, maar niets al te erg of storend. Het geluid is wat je zou verwachten van een Fazley.
Deze gitaar is een aanrader voor iedereen die een goedkope beginnersgitaar zoekt, of simpelweg een goedkopere uitbreiding van zijn collectie wilt.

Gewoonweg geweldig! Alles zoals op de foto's + snelle en goede service.
Ik ben erg tevreden.

Mooie afgewerkte gitaar om te zien. Geeft een warm geluid en de switch maakt drie geluid standen mogelijk. Eerlijk gezegd overtreft deze gitaar mijn verwachtingen. Zeker voor de prijs. Wat ik ook speel deze gitaar kan er mee overweg. Zowel voor de beginner als voor de wat gevorderde speler een interessante optie. Misschien omdat ik hem pas gekocht heb dat het opvalt maar ik zie deze gitaar ook steeds vaker bij professionele artiesten en dat zegt genoeg denk ik.
