Special features include a soft V-shaped neck, custom pickups with four-way switching, knurled chrome knobs and "Custom Shop Designed" neckplate.
The Baja Telecaster represents the ultimate in versitility for the Telecaster player. The 4 way pickup switching features series/parallel combinations, and the added option of the S-1 switch to give even extra beef to the sound by creating a humbucking option from the two pickups. All these modern appointments come with a 50's inspired blackguard Telecaster appearance, making this a true hot-rodded vibe monster!

Excellent guitar

I own five other telecasters, all of which have their own high and low points.
The Baja's construction and finish are flawless, and the set-up was spot on. Intonation is not an issue with mine. With the three-saddle bridge, it can be a challenge, but it's part of the telecaster sound.
Te 4-way switch adds additional tone choices and adds a fairly robust sounding out-of-phase middle position. The S1 switch is simply magical. It makes the pickups growl just a little bit without colouring the tone needlessly. This is quickly becoming my number one guitar, and I'm scared the others will get jealous.

One of the best guitars you could have. One downside is the intonation but this can easily be solved. Good for all types of music.
