The Fender Richie Kotzen Signature Telecaster features a DiMarzio DP173 Twang King neck pickup and DP384 Chopper T bridge pickup with a series-parallel rotary switch for tonal versatility. Unlike traditional bright Tele tones, it offers a fat, beefy, midrange-forward voice while maintaining Tele twang. Made in Japan with a large comfortable neck and flame-top appointments, it delivers a supercharged sound suited to modern rock, fusion, and expressive lead work.
Reissue of the 1960 Gibson Les Paul Junior Double Cutaway with a single Dogear P-90 pickup, mahogany body, and straightforward single-volume, single-tone controls. This student-era classic delivers surprising range from sweet cleans to snarling overdrive, favored by players seeking simplicity and vintage tone without dual pickups.
