Got one in Shoreline Gold a couple months ago, and I really do have a hard time putting it down. The neck feels like a modern 'C', 22 frets, 24.75" scale, the frets are med-jumbo and are dressed very well. The DD pups are staying in mine, very traditional sounding and not muddy in any combo, not much hum from them, and the middle position is dead quiet. The electronics are just fine IMO, the volume and tone both roll off smoothly, the pup selector feels solid and works fine but does make a bit of noise when switching. I didn't think that the 'semi-hollow' construction would make a lot of difference, but the guitar resonates beautifully. It stays in tune as well as any of my Fenders. Overall, for what it cost, it's incredible.

Thank you...

Those wouldn't be the same
pick-ups that are in the more
expensive Fender Thinline
would they ???

I saw a Thinline at a store 85
miles from me that was selling
for $729.00,,, I can't remember
what the pick-ups were... I
thought they looked bigger than
single coil,,, but weren't humbuckers...

Whatever they were,,, I liked the
sound of them...

Any idea what they were ???

Thanks,,,
