At the risk of folks accusing me of being a "deal clincher"

Here's one of the the best "Tele" you can get IMHO

I personally don't dig the 7.25" radius and 21 skinny frets of the Jap Fenders.

You deal clincher!!!!! :lol:

lovely guitar that one.... but malcolm...

sometimes its the LOOKS that matters most, who cares how it sounds... :wink:

The latest Korean Reverend Hollowbody are very very tastefully done. :wink:

 

[jumbofret]

Malcolm, don't ever take those people who called you a "deal-clincher" seriously... Never let them put you down, ok?

According to my research, authorized dealers are more beneficial to the market than resellers/2nd-hand dealers (too traditional and easy)

Yeah, Fender Japan guitars have that vintage approach, most if not all of them are made after a particular year/era... Hence the thin frets... Some ppl like them as they are vintage replicas... Some don't.

whoa malc. is that guitar still up for grabs?? i might be in the market for it... if my efforts to salvage my SG fail miserably.

What kinda customizing are you thinking of? e-mail me at empty71 at hotmail dot com to discuss. You might wanna visit my website and read about my repair philosophy.

Some people think I'm not flexible enough but I would like to call it integrity I'm into repair and restoration and not major modifications. There're others who'll be more than happy to do those kinda work :wink:

a little late on this issue but nevertheless...

i'm a big fan of the Highway1 Series (American) because it's a no frills, good guitar. there's is a cult following of this tele in the US, unlike the Strat H1. many people cite the ashtray bridge & satin finish as crucial elements in making the tele sound very impressive.
