I'm not sure... I can't tell if I'm impressed yet. I think I wanna get it, but, I'm worried. The price is too tempting.

hooray for weird ass alder-bodied guitars going for less than 200. Even GFS has awesome takes on the tele

Meh. It's just a Tele-ish clone. The copper hardware is a curious touch.

for 175 bucks, why not.
i guess the parts would not be as "universal" as fender or squire but you could play it for a year, smash it onstage, and not feel bad about it.

Just buy a none relic'd one. Then you get all the worm and fuzzy fellings of a cheap bastard and the added joy of thowing the body around for that relic'd look you need

At first, I said no. But now, I've had that guitar in my head for a few days. I'm liking it, it has character.

every guitar on the planet has them. what makes teles cool, among other things, is they have their own unique and cool sounding pickups.

Mustang also have single coils too, so they couldn`t be not cool!!

ugh. it's not cool because it's supposed to be a tele copy and it has strat pickups. how much simpler do I need to lay it out. it has nothing to do with mustangs.

Apparently, much simpler...
I can't figure out what I would do with it. I mean, it's so cheap, bus so cool lookin', at the same time, if I get a ding, I wouldn't notice or appreciate it. But, it's soooooooooo cool lookin'!
I would probly replace the pups, tho, even if it is "EMG designed"...
