(14,096 posts)I have a cheapo tele clone I use at jam sessions and occasionally have gigged with. I call it a "Chelecaster" I picked it up from Goodwill. It had the usual sloppy Chinese factory wiring issues which were easily fixed with a soldering gun. I was going to replace the pickups but once I had it all dialed in I found they sounded fine so I kept them. It nice to have a guitar you can take to a jam and not feel worried about it getting damaged or stolen. Not that I want that to happen. The brand is J3 and the model is "Atlantis".
