Topic: And yet another new Telecaster
Yep, I decided to treat myself and this morning went out and bought myself a second hand 72 reissue Japanese Fender Telecaster. Absolutely superb. I played it back to back with an American standard and, (please feel free to shoot me down in flames), I thought the Japanese guitar was every inch its equal!
Stunning in blonde with a white scratchplate and a maple neck and fretboard, super fast action and that lovely tele twang. Guess what I'll be doing the rest of the weekend. It looks great sat next to my Classic Player 60's Strat, Epiphone Wildkat, Ovation and Tanglewood Classical.
While I was buying that, my mate, who only came out to have a little play, was spending nearly £1000 on beautiful 2 colour burst American Standard Strat with a humbucker as a bridge pup. The thing is so good it almost plays itself! What can say, Carl at Andertons made a few quid in commissions from us this morning!
