This review is from: AXL Marquee Eldorado Electric Guitar, CreamWhile this guitar is obviously based on a Tele design, it is something all it's own. It's almost like some bizarre merging of a Fender and a Danelectro. While it has a little twang in the bridge pickup the tone is not exactly a tele tone, it instantly blows away any Squier out there as well as almost every tele copy I have seen. In that area alone I would put it on par with a MIM Tele (tone wise) even with the tone being something sort of off tele. I can't really explain it, you really have to hear it for yourself. It has two EMG design pickups, and they sound very bright. The 3 way selector switch is a nice touch because it diverts from the fender style and uses a Gibson like toggle. Unlike most cheap guitars, the tone and volume knobs actually do something, and you can produce a surprising range of different sounds. Although these are made in china, the quality is a bit better than most Chinese made guitars, in that area I would put them on par with a Standard Squier which is a step above Affinity, and 2 above Bullet. Value wise, you can't beat this, and with Amazon blowing these out for Christmas you can't go wrong. One warning:Because it's not coming from a guitar shop, you will probably need to have a proper setup done on it which is no big deal....
