Does Fender make a cheaper, foreign made Tennessee Strat? Or does Squire make a version? This guitar is way too cool looking to limit it to a $5000 Custom Shop model only. Gimme Gimme Gimme!

Thanks,

Tennissee Strat. Never heard of it. Do you mean the Lone Star or Big Apple Strats?

i`d never heard of this before either, but found one online -

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fender-Custom ... 2eb43fb4ca

- does look pretty cool.

In answer to the question though, im afraid a) i have no idea, and b) i somehow doubt it.

It's a custom shop Strat with Tele hardware; one of the coolest Fenders I've ever seen.. I hadn't heard of it since recently either. Here are a couple pics:

Looks to me you can find a strat like body that can be setup like a telecaster on Warmoth's or some other custom body builder.

Thanks for that info. I'm actually talkin' w/ them about prices. I'm thinking about getting it made with a basswood body with an ebony fretboard. I'm still on the fence about what type of wood I want for the neck. I'll probably go with maple; they recommended Goncalo Alves (which I've never heard of).

Tell me. I'm curious. All I've seen is how great it is. I tend to agree with your buddy.
