Ultimate Jazzmaster Comparison: Fender American Pro II vs. American Professional vs. American Ultra
"We finally have our new American Professional II Jazzmasters in the store and ready to showcase! As a huge fan of the Fender Jazzmaster, Cooper needed to get his hands on all of these to do a proper comparison-- with upgrades from the predecessor American Professional line including a beveled heel carve, V-Mod II pickups, the return of the "rhythm circuit" controls, and new finishing options, these guitars are up to the excellent standard we've seen from the American Pro II line. Take a listen as we compare the new and the old, as well as the big-brother American Ultra line, and discuss the benefits that each line presents."

Fender American Professional II Telecaster Deluxe American Pro II Tele vs. Gibson Les Paul.
Cooper is back to run down one of his favorite guitars of late! Today he's taking a look at the Fender Tele Deluxe in the American Pro II line, and comparing it to the regular (single coil) Telecaster in the line, as well as the humbucker'd classic, a Gibson Les Paul Standard 50's. All three of these guitars have special places in many players' hearts, but we'd love to hear what you think. Do you prefer the coil splitting and belly carving of the Deluxe, or the stick-to-the-classics of the regular Tele? Let us know in the comments!

Tim Pierce: My #1 Favorite Guitar Delay Trick: What I DO and NEVER DO with this AMAZING effect
What I DO and NEVER DO with this AMAZING effect...........
"More than any other effect on my guitar, I am addicted to delays!
I darken them and modulate them so that they get hidden behind the original signal.
I also hide the delay trails..
This way you may not know I’m using them, but they are still making the guitar sound very wide and spacious."
