SX Telecaster Thinline, great CHEAP tele clone test
I read in several places about how good are SX guitars (extremely cheap Spain brand, made in China). As i’m curious… here my birthday gift, a iper cheap ASH (yes, it is real ash) Telecaster Thinline with 2 single coils. Screenshot are so good i’m suspecting it wont be as good in real… but i’m really really suprised about the wood and resonance. There was wire soldered by a blind man, and still some wood pieces into body (ah ah ah) but anything you can solve for free. The plan is to put serious pickup set in, but i’m quite impressed about how the stock pickup sounds so i wanna share this with others. Tuning is not great, but is really just out of box with new strings, so let’s see after a couple of hours… capo need work anyway. Tuners are cheap but are better than i think, like almost anything here. i’m IMPRESSED about how this guitar look and how this guitar play. Maybe with a Nocaster set or Twang King set….
Using the great Epiphone Blues Custom with a bit of reverb
@ MrKennyMiles it is a pretty good telecaster, and stock pickups are not bad at all, so it suitable for tele lot of usage are as versatile instruments. being a semi hollow it need care with extreme high gain tones, but i hope anyone buy a thin line to do death metal:)
is this for rockabilly, country or only for n blues funk?
does anyone know exactly what finish this guitar is? because i want to sand down the headstock to remove the logo
@ DavinaFaerie Last I saw just under $ 200 @ Pony Music. I checked the website but they arent listed. They have a much bigger range than what they show on the website.
@ DavinaFaerie these models are sold here. Pony Music stocks a wide range of SX guitars!
@ DavinaFaerie thank you. if you seek for newer videos, i changed the pickups some months ago and some other mod and now it is really a killer tone guit. anyway at a starting point, this is a very nice guitar telecaster model and play even better than stock various teles of much higher price range
Your awesome! & That guitar playing is beautiful. . . : 0) Going to rondo now-I just hope I can make it sound as amazing. . . : 0)
@ DavinaFaerie I’m here to share knowledge with other youtube users, so I’m happy too if i can be helpful. I never tried the Jixing guitars so i do not know, i just can talk of guitars i tried or own. There are some very nice cheap guitars outthere, but not all cheap guitars are good and price is not a good meter to judge
@ Rafport btw, what do you think of Nature by Jixing guitars?
@ Rafport Really? Wow, I was just about to buy that. . . We do not have the ? here in Australia, we have the Australian dollar Which is not much in difference to the U.S. dollar. Damn, I’m checking out Rondo music then. . . Thanks so much, I really appreciate it. . . : 0)
@ I’m not convinced about DavinaFaerie that price. i buy mine 2 years ago but i payed 139 EUR in dollars that are a bit more (but consider here are usually higher price for musical stuff, most of things even if price EUR same cost value is higher than dollar). It really seem too expansive. It is a good guitar but it get cheap components. You saw prices at Rondo Music shop? I guess are reasonable than this one
@ Thanks for getting rafport back to me, you’re awesome. . . : 0) I found this au store on ebay and they sell them for $ 299 + $ 20 shipping, is that reasonable? So, can I ask what do you think of nature Jixing? I need the cheapest alternative ’cause I’m a broke uni student, lol. . . Thanks in advance. . . : 0)
@ DavinaFaerie check on Rondo Music website, it is the U.S. store for SX guitars and did shipment worldwide. It should be rather cheap even with shipment
How much would one of these cost in Australia? Thanks guys.
@ XDMETALLICARULES thanks
