Hello ActiveP,

As our forum friend Miami Mike
pointed out the Merle Haggard Signature
a fine piece of artistry from te custom shop.

The custom classic would
do me fine, blonde if you please.

Although the one I've really
got a hankering for is the
GE Smith.

Best of luck with your choice.

Cheers.

John Cruz's first relic. Hanging out in his office "talking guitars" was a rare experience.

In my opinion (I own many CS Teles) the best "affordable" one, although the most expensive of the "regular" CS Teles, is the Merle Haggard tele, very polyvalent , very well made with stunning woods, set neck , 5 way switch.
I love mine.
