Help finding a new tele

Post by Awstin »

So I was thinking about getting another tele. No building or anything, possibly some mods but I'm looking for a real nice player and looker.

Being that said... I own a Tele Ford Mustang edition and I just love that guitar. The feel of it and everything. The pickups are nice, the bridge is great and the necks gloss is just amazing feeling and looking. Plus I love the CAR color with match headstock. Does anyone know what kind of series is close to that one or if there are any series with a matching headstock close to it? I really think a lake placid blue one would be nice.

Aslo, I can't see to find any pictures but how does a sonic blue tele with a red tort guard look? Anyone have any pictures?

Go for a regular sunbrust tele. Paint it as Kurt did, baby blue with a red heart courtney shape.

I dunno, i just think black guard Tele's look the business. My fave is Rick Parfits white model, its all about basics and character not matching headstocks and binding. Leave that shit for other models, we are talking Tele's here.

You may find this inspiring (he has one of the biggest Tele collections in the world), i know i did..
