Ash isn’t always heavy. It can actually be quite light. Depending on what part of the tree was used and where it was grown. “Swamp ash” was the part of the tree that was submerged most of the time and once it’s dry it’s really light.
Man... The lack of brightness in these pickups is for no other reason than that this guitar comes equipped with 250k potentiometers and a .047uf capacitor. A big mistake by Thomann. I changed the pots for some 500k ones and a 22nf capacitor and now the pickups scream and sing.
Look to be honest HB's QC is about as low as it can be. If I were Thomann I would put the price of all the HB's and other sub 200 Euro guitars up 50 Euro's with the guarantee that a good set up, fret buzz and sharp fret ends were all taken care of. How many of the bloody things have I sent back!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I never learn obviously?)
@@Neil-Aspinall this was a fender player. Frets were wonky, grounding issue. A bum tuner and paint was flaking. Nothin that you can’t fix with sandpaper, parts and a can of rustoleum.

The Teslas are good pickups indeed, but this is also very important. Good comment!
Thanks for your tip. I have now also replaced the Potis with 500K. Now I really like the sound.
Thanks for reviewing , still how about frets from a year's perspective? Are they coming in or no fret sprout?
Muchas Graciad Caballero fue muy util su informacion Hasta siempre Saludos desde Chile Gracias
Grat tone, thank for your your job
Increíble
The first thing I’m doing when I get one is turning that humbucker upside down
The only way i would HB is on my local Guitar store so i wont wait 1 month and than will be disspointed on QC issius
Wish it came in white...
Good guitar but why that Chrome and golden Hardware Mix? No way.
Thats the way Keiths is!
IS TESLA STRONGLY BETTER THAN ROSVEL?
Subjective but I think so. I'm not a fan of the Roswell pickups in general.
Roswell pickups are very lifeless and dull sounding.
these 2 pick-up, if bought separately, will be around the price of the whole guitar. 160 euro...

So stop buying them
Can’t be any worse than fender. The last tele I bought was in real sad shape.
@@SeasonedSalmon I live in hope that I can get some bargains for home recordings, unlike you I can not afford 3 thousand Euro guitars?
@@thomaslthomas1506 Yeah I've had some Squiers where the intonation was impossible.
