I agree with too much money... I hate that you got taken on the price but the good part is that they have a real cool sound to them. Not great for everything but its got that Rockabilly vibe to it.

Scott Cortez from lovesliescrushing used to use those old Kents. The binding on them looks like layer cake.

Oh no worries, I didn't buy it... I was strongly considering.

They do have a copy of a Fender Telecaster Deluxe with an exact fender looking headstock for 180 bucks, think I'm gonna buy it to make up for my lack of humbuckers.

what kind of humbuckers does it have? maple neck? what brand of copy?

The humbuckers were black uncovered and unmarked...
I don't remember the brand. It was brown with a black-guard... Maple neck, with real fender style head.

You think its a bad idea to buy? I've always loved the deluxe, I am a cheapass, and 180 canadian is cheap and will satisfy my urges... I'll prob eventually put new buckers in.

nah, i was just curious if it had fender WRHB copies.

i can't tell if a guitar is a good idea to buy without seeing pictures, and even then, it's an assumption i don't like to make unless it has green pearl, a maple fretboard, or a gash headstock.

gash headstock? Well I fear next time I go in it may be gone, and I can't find any pictures... Ima just buy it, whats a hundred bucks with a squier bass trade in right?
More guitars the merrier!

Uno how much pickup covers are?
