Spec Sheet
Detemple ’52 Tele
Description:

I put my money where my mouth is.  If there is a top quality guitar on the market I’ll acquire it.  Detemple S&T types are amongst the best available of any style.  This particular one has a really acoustic overtone that plays so nicely with the fundamental note.

Of course this Tele features a 1-piece Ash Body & 1-piece Flame Maple Neck.  Mike hand selects bodies and necks at the START of the build process.  The body & neck travels throughout the process together.  The neck pocket & neck fight tightly (see most other builds for gaps then compare a Detemple).

LARGE NECK LOVERS TAKE NOTE:  This Soft-V-To-C has a .97″ to 1.00″ Profile.   Want other specs?….please look at the pictures for a detailed Spec/Condition sheet with TONS of details!

In my experience, when people A/B/C a Detemple to their X-guitar, the Detemple almost always ends up in their collection.

BUT…they all sound different.  So let me help you select the right one for you.  I have a huge selection of reference amps that will allow me to try each through gear close to what you actually use.  The goal is to help get something that you will love.

My reference amps include 72 Hiwatt, ’67 Marshall 50w, 68 Marshall Cab w 20s, Trainwreck Express JM, ’66 Fender Princeton Reverb, ’61 Vox AC15, ’65 Fender Deluxe Reverb, ’57 Fender Bassman, Bogner Twin Jet, 73 Marshall 20w Head & Matching Cab. I also have whatever amps are in stock to supplement.
