Which presets are best for a telecaster

[Chewie5150]

When I got my first Tele not long ago I was surprised how well the HBE sounded. It plays well with a lot of amps

Fractal has basically no presence in the country realm, and has never really shown interest in it.

You’re kind of on your own with regards to pre-made presets.

I use my Axe3 for country and pedal steel. Works great!

@Burgs has made a whole bunch of great tele presets. check out "brett kingman' on axechange

I don't play country, but my favorite amps with my tele are Morgan AC20 and FTR37.

But to answer your question, your best bet is Andy Wood’s preset from last year’s Gift of Tone presets.

I will try that

I’m a new Tele player and I too, am having a hard time getting the compression and snap/punch sound correct, on any patch I use.

My tele loves that 6G4 Super.

What the hell is 'Country' now a days. You play the damn thing and if it sounds good call it whatever you want. For Fractal, have found that keeping it simple gives the best results in general. I like using the 'drive' settings in the 'amp' block instead of adding a drive block. IMO the drive blocks are the achilles heal of all modelers incl Fractal units. You might even want to use an external compressor of choice going to the input of the FM. Add a delay block and a spring reverb and call it good. Most amp blocks will work with the right settings. The cab block can be a bit of a pain to choose but once you get some favorites that play well with your playback system and telecaster you are on the road to success. In any case, you should create your own preset(s) and start simple.
