    Default CV 50s tele

    The pups didn't work on the first Squier Classic Vibe 50s tele that I received from MF.

    I've had the replacement for maybe two weeks now...WOW!

    I've never had a tele before, man is it a lot of fun. Lots of bite and sustain and a killer low end.

    My favorite position is the the middle with both pups on.
    I pick a moon dog.

    These CVs are great!!
    I now have 3 and if I had the fundage, I'd have the full set of Teles and Strats.

    Is that the Tele Custom, or the original White one? I have the new CV Tele Custom and it is just amazing. I can't put it down. I have never owned a tele and I will now have to try more of them out in the stores to see if they all play as nice as this one.

    I haven't played the CV Teles yet but I did spend a few hours in a store putting the CV 60s Strat through the paces. Definitely a SWEET axe for the money. Best series Squier's put out in a while IMHO. I'd take that sucker over plenty of Mexican Strats I've played. I can only assume the Teles are up to snuff. I have a cheap off-brand Tele knock-off that gets the job done but eventually I'll need something better. I definitely have my eye on the CV. And the basses in that line are killer too.

    Today I was listening to my guitar teacher jam with the CV Tele Custom
    through Fender Blues Deluxe and a Vox Night Train with it's matching cab that Tele just rocked both of them.

    I have not touched one yet but I think I am leaning towards the CV Tele ThinLine. A real cheap and great way to get into the Semi-hollow Guitar world.

    I have gas for sure for that axe only the the Fender American Special Black HSS has me gasing more! If Gasing is a word!!!! LMAO @ gasing

    Congrats Tot enjoy your new axe!

    I said it about the CV50s Strat. A must have guitar, don't miss it, and I am even more emphaticaly saying the same about the CV Tele Custom. Mine came set up and intonated, with a set of D'Adarrio 10s at my request from a Ma and Pa local. I only had to lower the action and it was perfect.

    All I know is that our own Robert Renman just bought a CV 50's, and I'm waiting for his demo!

    Yeah, awesome guitars I just wish they would come in a few more colors.

    Hi Iago, long time no see! Yeah, I will get some videos up, just be patient.

    How are things in Olinda? Playing much?

    Yes..long time! But hopefully I'll be able to stick around more often now during vacations (there are 2 forums in "Orkut" in which I'm a moderator and co-owner and that's also a cause for my vanishing). Sunny day today in Olinda and I hope it keeps like that, some friends from Germany are coming over this weekend
    And of course my Tele keeps getting the usual abuse daily! Thanks for asking!
