Hey thanks,

The Shine (WF160) Tele is a pretty good guitar for the money i paid (£109)

Looks really nice, and sounds great.. I had been planning on getting a squier tele at the time, but i chose the shine after testing it in the shop, and i was really loving it.

you can see its specifications here ( select from the menu)http://www.saein.co.kr/2005/proimg/eg01/

I guess i give this guitar a 7/10, the only bad part is i get some fret "buzzing" sometimes

Adam - welcome aboard! I noted your B.B. King avatar, too. If you're into the blues, Mr. King's material is simply some of the best stuff there is. Do you have his "Live At The Regal" CD? If not, I'd highly recommend it. That's some amazing stuff right there, and a must-have for every fan of the blues.

welcome adam... I also was drawn to this site by robert... thought I was looking at the VOX he plays through but he tempted me into a squier 51.. he's a heck of a salesman huh..heh..

He, he, when my neighbour thought of buying his first (cheap) electric guitar few weeks ago and asked me for as suggestion, my first idea was: Hey, he needs this Squier 51.

He wants the blonde one, but now the black in on store, the sunburst will arrive in 2 days and the blonde, hm, there's a new date of delivery at January 25th...

But he saw the videos of Robert and now he doesn't want anything else :R


At Adam: welcome at the vox/Squier 51 head quarter :cool:
