Jazz on Fender Telecaster & Stratocaster

**kris** · 01-31-2016, 05:15 AM

Hi,
I/ve recorded clean sound solos on my Strat and Tele today.
I use 11' string on Strat and 12 " on Tele.
I played solos on neck pick'ups/APG/.
how do you like them?
All The Best

The tele kills the strat! That's because I have a tele too, and I hate strats

Great playing! I am definitely putting 12's or 13's on my tele now, after hearing this. Now I have 11's on the tele, and 12's on my LP copy.

yeah, tele is killin it...I am not biased....

**neatomic** · 01-31-2016, 06:14 PM

ouch!! you guys are killin him..he just got that strat!!

the tele has the more "jazzy" rolled back tone..strat has some snap..almost piezo-ish...tell you the truth, i prefer the tele tone too!! hahaha

kris you really have abercrombie vibe down..nice

cheers

**ghoststrat** · 01-31-2016, 06:32 PM

I preferred the strat tone. Nice work, either way.

**gspirro1** · 01-31-2016, 06:54 PM

Great playing! Nice ideas and phrasing! Tones are sweet as well, but it's music that matters most, right? Thanks Kris!

**rhoadsscholar** · 01-31-2016, 11:18 PM

Good stuff. The strat has a unique voice to it. Loveit

**kris** · 02-01-2016, 04:30 AM

Thanks for all coments.
Yes...Tele and Strat.
I have my Tele 6 years already and I did a lot of mods on it to get this "jazzy" sound...I mean dark,warm,woody etc.
Most important Graphtech saddles , APG humbs in single size and chambered body.

The Strat I have only few days and I like it very much because it is different...but some of things in my Strat I like very much...I have to try 12" strings on it and maybe experiment with Graphtech saddles.The potential of Stratocaster is very,very big.
All The Best

Hello,
I think in take nr 3 I/ve got very good jazz sound on my Strat.
I used Shadow cable with preamp...:-)
This really fat jazz warm sound...

I lean toward the tele. However, I could listen to you play all day regardless of which guitar.

**mr. beaumont** · 02-01-2016, 10:36 AM

I lean tele too, but not as far as I thought I would.

It's always a pleasure to hear you play.

Thanks...
I think Strat is a rock guitar....

**Ghostofachance** · 02-01-2016, 01:45 PM

Hey thanks for the aural treat, Kris! If you have access to a Flying V, BC Rich Mockingbird or any of the ESP F models, perhaps you could post some clips of your playing jazz on those as well?

**kris** · 02-01-2016, 03:37 PM

One more Hipnostrat Funk....I use pick first time witrh my Strat....

**Playerizor** · 02-03-2016, 12:20 AM

I love your playing. I also use strat and tele almost exclusively.

In this case it seems like the tele is trying too hard to sound like an archtop. The strat has a more honest tone, if that makes sense

Standard Tele a Strat are really different...

Fixed bridge, no whammy, no forearm contour or tummy cut. I think both Teles sound good

Kris, in my post above, forgot to request recordings made on any of the Ibanez Joe Satriani models. But only if you have access to one -- not suggesting that you buy one, obviously. Ditto, a Jimmy Hendrix tribute Strat and the Epiphone Les Paul Gothic.
