Tele for fingerstyle: thinking Player or Ultra?
I’m coming from acoustic and nylon-string crossover acoustic-electric. I am leaned toward a Telecaster for the great body! I like both the Player and Ultra models.
I play fingerstyle.
Tele Player has nice tone and no middle pickup both good for fingerstyle. The middle pickup won’t be under my picking fingers. 👍
Pickups: is it true that Player can mix the 2 pickups in a blend? What about the Ultra? It is also 2 pickups and they can be blended?
I don’t know the neck profile terms. I want a standard nut width but prefer a flatter neck cross section (not rounded fat “baseball club” neck).
Here I can’t find a Tele Ultra nearby but it appears that the neck profile is more of a D that I want and less of a C. Did I get that right?
Also the Ultra has a very nice build quality.
The Ultra body may be contoured. I will used this for songwriting in long sessions and want comfort.
