@499.00 new what do you think??

Welcome to the Forum nipler. I've played the Blacktop Stratocaster and Telecaster, they sound great and play great. Let us know if you choose one. When I saw your username I thought of this video clip

My Blacktop Strat, Sonic Blue with rosewood and humbuckers, is the best sounding guitar I have!

I'm looking to pick up the Blacktop Baritone Tele. Went to the GC over the weekend to play one but they didn't have one. Maybe I'll take a chance and order one.

I had a Blacktop HH and now have a Blacktop HH Floyd Rose. I like the guitars themselves. I think that the humbuckers are a little bright. I am modding my BT HH FR to a HSH configuration. All parts bought, just waiting for the new pickguard to come in.

I played a black Blacktop Tele. I'm a Tele traditionalist and I prefer Teles with 2 single coils, but this was a very nice guitar.

Thanks for the input - I chose the sonic blue strat - love the sound. I feel that if you like to lay the back of your palm on the bridge - you keep running into the volume knob. I think that is poorly designed- vol. knob to close to the Hum.
