How do you get the notice of these specials? I've been on the site, but all I see is a number to call for Friday deals?

You have to call on Fridays and they will tell you which models and what the prices are.

I popped for the G.E. Smith Telecaster, which I've been eyeing for over a year .... I haven't even seen beat-up used ones at that price .... $999.99, no tax, free shipping .... LAST week I almost called to see if they wouldn't substitue IT for the SRV they listed (but I didn't). As it turned out, all I had to do is wait a week :wink:


Tiednbound, make sure you post a pic when it arrives, and let us know if it sounds any different than a typical Tele. I almost bought one myself, but decided to wait and see if they run a deal on a 57 VR Strat, or Eric Johnson Strat.


So, here it is. These aren't great pics, but I'll do them again later .... I want to go over it and take the protective film off it first. The neck is like a baseball bat .... really fat ("U"-shaped). Fender Artist Series G.E. Smith Telecaster

wow tied nice.

I actually was fiddling around with one of those at the shop near me just the other day. It was a blonde colour.

I am developing TAS I think, I don't have a tele, and really the last 2 guitars to really catch my eye are a GE Smith like you have, and a Nocaster.

I've already tried to call and find out, but they said they wont even know until right before 6:00 a.m. Central time. I'm hoping for either VR Tele, American Deluxe Tele, VR Strat or Hot Rod Strat. At the right price that is. :wink:

It looks like at least some items qualify for shipping to Canada. If you go to the MF site and click on that Gibson Reverse V on the home page and it takes you to that product it says right below availability on the rt side that item will ship to Canada.
