"I believe the pickups are not rosewood" we got a jokester here
I just want to thank The Alamo Music center for the exceptional customer service! I bought this guitar back in February and the wait was 100% worth it! Thank you Cooper for the shoutout in the video! I plan on being a customer for life!! The video and you playing my guitar was an absolute honor, you’re a exceptional musician!! Thanks again Cooper and Nick at Alamo Music, there is no wonder why your store has been around for 90+ years, the best and coolest experience I’ve ever had buying a guitar!!

It's a wonderful guitar, isn't it? That was kind of you to let them film a video with it. My shop wanted to waste no more time, refused to do a Facebook post on it and had it on its way to me the second it arrived.
The best Telecaster demo I've ever heard/seen! The clean and slight breakup were perfect! 🎸
Newly discovered. The fact that a young guy like you chose All Things Must Pass as your top guitar album amazes me... speaks to your taste and independence of thought. Exceptional choice, pal. Love your channel!
Nice. Great playing! Nailed the demo.
Beautiful guitar, awesome tone, and a great demo!!
Cooper, great video and great playing. I love your taste in vintage music. George was one of my favorites. I’m old enough to have seen many of his contemporaries live. Love this guitar. Thank you
I really like your playing, and it was nice to hear you being so gracious and grateful to Anthony for letting you play this. Thanks for this.
I love that you guys made this video! So many major channels connected to stores haven’t made one (probably because it won’t help them sell an already sold out model) so I appreciate that you guys took the time! Sounds beautiful
bro literally. how are you so good. straight up mesmerizing watching and listening to you play brotha. Y'all kill it every time.
Wow - amazing demo and thank you to Anthony for letting us hear this lush guitar.
Absolutely wonderful video, stunning dream guitar and excellent playing from Cooper, Many thanks to Tony Marks to make possible this memorable video.
That’s an awesome guitar! Great video! 💯
you really did such an awesome guitar justice, great playing
I own a Strat with a rosewood neck and I love it, I’d love to own one of these Tele’s if I didn’t already have a few of them already. Thanks for the cool demo Cooper, such a gorgeous guitar man 🤙
Thank you Anthony. It's a lovely guitar, ENJOY!!!
Amazing guitar. Such a beauty.
I finally received mine after having been on preorder (not from this shop) since launch day (a video is actually on my channel, if anyone is interested). Everything about this guitar that Cooper is true. His playing is better than mine will ever be. Very kind of your customer to let you film a video with it, too. I also agree that with the Super Deluxe Edition box set reissues of both "All Things Must Pass" and "Let It Be", plus the "Get Back" documentary, it was an extremely wise, smart and natural move on Fender's part to reissue this guitar. I'm blessed to have one and so is your customer (who I see commented as well. What's up, Tony?) The person George gave his original to was Delaney Bramlett, who encouraged George to play slide guitar. Delaney sold it at auction in 2003 and the one and only Ed Begley, Jr bought the guitar and gave it back to Olivia and Dhani, who had it restored to it's stock form (supposedly, Bramlett routed one of the pickups out for a humbucker). in 2011, Dhani showed the guitar to Conan O'Brien for a long-gone iPad app spotlighting George's guitars. Dhani said that guitar weighed a ton and would cut off the circulation in one's thigh if they weren't careful. I also believe that George's also had a gloss polyurethane finish and a 7.25 neck radius.
Sweet playing on an awesome Tele!
I have many images that pop into my head when I think of George with a guitar. The white tele at the concert for Bangladesh. The black duojet on the cover of Cloud 9. The blonde tele in the video for Got My Mind Set on You. The psychadelic strat. His Casino. His 12- string Rickenbacker. Consequently, I don't heavily associate him with the rosewood tele, even though it was unique.
Beautiful. Great demo! Would love to have one of these. I think this is the second Ltd. Edition run Fender have done - if I remember correctly there were some available in the 90's? Whatever - amazing piece of work.
Georgeous! My Sweet Lord, you need one of these Cooper!
George gave his rosewood tele to Delaney Bramlett after Delaney asked asked him for it!
Awesome sounding Telecaster
Thanks Cooper, you are one lucky guy!
I amazingly remember the exact moment I decided "hey music is kinda cool, maybe I will get into it." I was like 11, and I had Kazaa (like Napster), and decided to search for some music. I never was into music before this. And I typed in the Beatles, cos hey, they seemed pretty popular. A bunch of songs populated, and I clicked one called Something, waited for it to download at like 6 kbps.... and played it. It was the first time I really listened, and was moved by music. Just such a pretty song. Anyway I'm 33 now and have been music obsessed ever since as a listener, player, singer, writer. The Beatles, and George, I've always had a very special love for. Though he played the Les Paul on that track. Anyway, just wanted to share my corny ass music story. George is the man.
Wow! that's definitely got a vintage tone.
Dig the sound. impressive. Fancy Greenberg playing and demo.
Everything about this is beautiful! The guitar, the playing, the sound.
sweet, George was underappreciated
You played those noodles beautifully.
I would like to get a George Harrison Telecaster in the future
Coop, that is your guitar. You need one. Great job.
I don’t know about vintage tone but I do know funny - pick ups aren’t rosewood 😂😂😂 great playing and fantastic sound thanks for your reviews demos and personal input on these videos
Bell like tone.
Nice playing Cooper....Is this one of your favorite electric guitars?
About the only guitar missing from my collection, can’t find one anywhere 🤔
There's a rumour that the main reason the police were worried about whether the roof could take the weight of the Beatles playing the rooftop concert was down to Geroge's solid rosewood tele... :)
I keep hoping against hope that they’ll do a Squier with a veneer or finish that has the look.

There is HB that looks like this one
The playing began and I thought, Coop, Don't Let Me Down.
I ordered mine in Feb. from Alamo. No word on when I will get it. In fact I ordered mine first!
The original un-chambered version must have weighed a ton!
Seems pretty damn bright! (I guess that's why god invented the tone control!) I would love one of these! Gorgeous.
Fantastic, man. Heil The Beatles!
Having this fellow demo guitars is a little too deceiving...he could make a washboard and one string sound good. Nice chops.
Yeah, I remember this popping up as new on the Fender website... and then seeing it nowhere for sale anywhere. Fender playing silly games by intentionally producing way below demand.
Great guitar, fantastic performance! I can already picture 1969 George Harrison lacadasically bemoaning himself: "Well I can't play any of that, really... Maybe you should get him to play on the rec-cord? I wouldn't mind, you know?"
How about just a review of the guitar?
Looks good enough to justify hanging it on the wall in a glass case. Sounds like it's saying "you better not, I'm a telecaster."
The guitar George Harrison called the worst guitar I have ever played” in several interviews.
2nd comment podium! Wheres my new Tele Lol
Wet
Annnnd it's gone.
It'd be cooler if it was your Tele.
The guitar George called ” The worst guitar I have ever played”. George was never again seen with a Telecaster for the rest of his career. Only used 2 weeks ( the least used Beatle guitar of them all). Then immidiately gave it away never wanting to See it for the rest of his life. Shame on Fender and Olivia Harrison for doing this to George. The guitar George called the worst guitar he had ever played ” The Fender Rosewood Telecaster” was bought buy Olivia Harrison 2 years after Feorges death and she let Fender produce it. Olivia has Done a lot of stuff George would have not approved. He promised to pay a pension to his sister for 2000 USD for the rest of her life. The month after Georges death Olivia stops the payment to Georges sister.
