I brought home my new Telecaster last night. It is a James Burton Signature (Upgrade) in Olympic Pearl. I'll try to get some pictures done, but this URL at the James Burton site shows the guitar. It's the white one at the bottom right corner of the page.

http://www.james-burton.net/portal/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=51

It has three James Burton signature pickups, a five position Strat-o-Tele switch, an S-1 switch, and gold hardware. No pickguard. The pickups are body mounted. There is no rear access plate, so everything had to be wired by pixies through the routed pickup cavities and the control plate cavity. The headstock has the usual logo stuff, plus the serial number and the signature of the "Wild Man" himself, and the "Made in USA," of course. Very cool tweed case.

Just starting to get to know this guitar, but it sounds great. I am tempted to buy a Squier Affinity to gig with because I don't want to take this thing out of the house.
