Cool guitar Eljay, enjoy!

Thanks! I’m really looking forward to it given that A)I love unusual Fenders and B) I don’t have a functioning Tele at the moment,just a Squier Tele in need of a fix-up.

Congratulations! Nothing like a new Fender!!

Indeed! I’m already contemplating what to fit into my budget next. The Jaguar Stratocaster from the parallel universe series is also very appealing, but I would really love a Guild Starfire 12 string. Guild has always made wonderful guitars,and the sale to Cordoba seems to have benefited them greatly.

Congratulations! That is a very cool looking Fender. The black block inlays look great on the maple neck. It looks like a new type of bridge, too. Have fun when you get it!

Oh man ... you got the Meteora?! Congratulations! I'm absolutely planning on getting one as well. The whole Parallel Universe series has been pretty amazing -- and here I told myself I was going to purchase fewer guitars this year. Massive fail on that New Year's resolution. :D

Thanks! I think the bridge with it’s compensated saddles and mini-ashtray cover is directly lifted from the American Professional Tele. ( correct me if I’m wrong )

I don't know how you do it.
I'm bad enough now. If I had a Fender Employee discount, I'd need to buy a 2nd house just for the guitars and amps!

Hmm... I've been wanting to get out of California and move to Free America. Are there any openings at Fender in the high 5-digit to low 6-digit range?

Ha! I know ... what was I thinking?! I set the resolution, then visited NAMM in late January ... where all of the Parallel Universe stuff was on prominent display. Not wise. :D
