It's like a hassle-free Strat.
I've always had problems with Strats, the pickups and the tremolo would always be just 'off', I always had a feeling that the sound could/should be better. I just wanted to have a hassle-free guitar that I could play and not have to deal with tuning issues and intonation problems every time I changed the strings. I bought a cheap Harley Benton Tele to see what they were like. I was impressed but in the end I wanted a better quality instrument. I bought the Fender Player Tele and I absolutely love it. It looks gorgeous and sounds fantastic (great pickups). A very small set up out of the box (intonation) and then it played like a dream. No more whammy bar nonsense, just plain old rock 'n' roll and blues now (and hard rock, and metal, and country, and pop, and even a little bit of jazz, it can cover them all). Highly recommended.

For the price, you're getting a Ferrari
I owned and played a Squier for the longest time. The difference in playability and feeling from the Squier to this Player series beauty is absolutely noticeable. Any beginners or a few who know will play often, I would highly suggest buying this guitar over a cheaper one. If you try playing a cheaper guitar after playing this one for considerable time, you'll thank yourself you bought this one!

Proper fender guitar
First off, I'm not a professional musician, I just jam with my room mate. I've had quite a few guitars over the years but none actually played like this one. To be honest this guitar has been a childhood dream of mine. I really love the maple neck, yea I know, it's a matter of taste, but i think the roughness goes well with the guitar's natural twangy sound. It somehow retains the "guitar" sound even with heavy fuzz or overdrive.
When it comes to build quality it really seems that Fender managed to solve important issues they had over the years. Good job! The guitar was perfectly set up. even the intonation was proper and it came with a document that was hand signed by the people who oversaw the quality control and set up process.
Thomann delivered as always. Good packaging and management. They set the bar pretty high. Thank you guys!

Best Value Tele Around!
I have owned a few teles in the past and this is the best of the lot, great finish, sounds as good as much more expensive models. Delivered quickly and professionally, with updates from Thomanns at every stage of the process and helpful after sales comms as well. Great service, thank you.

I am very happy with this telecaster. The new pickups are very impressive. The guitar was perfectly set up out of the box. The range of tones is excellent. The finish on the guitar is faultless. I have no negative comments about this product.

Cool
Enjoyable guitar to play. Needed some fixing up. Lots of screws were loose or lost but I had spare. Stock strings are poor so buy the ones you want

What a great guitar!
Ordered the Player series Tele after reading good reviews, was not disapointed. Delivered to Ireland in a few days. Already nicely set up straight out of the box, I didn't have to do a thing to it. Have been playing guitar over 40 years and have owned many guitars but this is my first Telecaster. Honestly can't find a fault in it. Great service as always from Thomann.

If you want a Tele, this is a Tele.
Pickups sound sweet, neck feels nice and fast and cleaning it is quick due to the finish on the fretboard (I thought I'd hate it but it's really nice), intonation and action is a breeze with the 6 saddles. Only issue I had was a very tightly stuck truss rod.

Very good tele for the price
This tele is my first electric guitar and I must say I haven't been disappointed at all with this guitar. Great sound and all the right classic features mixed in with the right modern features. Mine has some small cosmetics imperfections but I think those just makes the guitar more unique.
