Went to Nashville GC for the forth of July sale. Happened to be in the area.
Picked out a beautiful MIM std tele. Wound up with a white one with maple board and white pickguard right out of a box, with a beautiful straight grained neck and real nice tone. Played it thru a SCXD. Got a good deal but Tenn has a nine per cent sales tax.
Anyway, I now have a real nice tele from Nashville and that is kind of cool in its own way; value added, at least to me - which is all I care about really, I'm not selling it, I'm upgrading my collection.
I also bought a digitech hardwire reverb pedal that I have been wanting and it sounds real good. I had my Vox DA5 along for the trip and it worked real well, especially with earphones at night. I like those overdrive channels and the compression.
So I now have recently purchased two Fender tele's: a Nashville blonde and the std MIM white one. These are great sounding guitars. You have to give it to those Mexican Fender workers. They make some nice guitars.
I also saw some awesome guitars at that Nashville GC, as you can imagine. I saw an all black with chrome hardware strat that I liked for 499. It had black pup covers and knobs, etc., maple board. They had a bunch of MIM strats selling for like 349, nice ones too. They had the satin black Gibson SG with a hardshell case for 649 that I almost got instead of my intended tele, but I talked myself out of it. That is an awesome satin black SG if you have not seen it in person.
I will get some pictures taken of my new teles and post them here as soon as possible.
