[hofner]

I just got my telecaster from guitar connections..MIJ 850. Plays like a dream...althought i find the feeling abit weird when playing with a strap standing up. Mine sounds like an acoustic on the bridge pup too!

any vintage teles out dere?

I have a strat and a tele.

My opinion on tele:
(+) The position of knob is perfect for me, better than the strat (which I usually hit the volume knob accidentally)
(+) The position of the pickup feels better for me when strumming.
(-) My rib and arm suffer after hours of playing in sitting position. Wonder why there's no cut on the body like strat

 

[pooo]

how i wish my future tele have got a whammy bar..i don't think bigsby's can do tremolo arm stuff.

They can, only if you dare to do it :lol: It works, but tuning stability is shit. Maybe locking tuners plus an lsr roller nut might work. Might.

sub: how much does a Fender MIA tele with maple fingerboard cost in swee lee? thanks 8)

the last time i asked (2004), the American Series Tele @ swee lee listed for $1,700. it was out of stock by November that year...

the S1 switching in the Deluxe range of Fenders is a love/ hate affair. i'm one who dislike this feature because it tampers too much with the single coil purity. however, if you like it fat without having to switch to a humbucking guitar, the S1 is your best bet.

Thing is= with any switch you can leave it off or turn it on. With S-1 in normal mode the tele is stock switching. Pure single coil. its only when you press the S-1 switch that you get a humbucker sound, So you have the choice, Anyway i am surprised you dont also mention the Selenium cobalt noiseless pickups , If you are a REAl purist the 52 reissue is for you. trouble is that the switching on a 52 gives a neck position with all the treble rolled off so it is virtually unuseable, therefore they give the circuit diagram so you can rewire to common tele 3 way switching.With this mod, the 52 is awesome.
