Hi everyone - can't decide between a lite ash, nashville or 50's tele. (All mexican versions). I am in Scotland and it is about £400 (-$800) for each of them. What are your opionions of each in the maple version? Does anyone have any of them? Future value?

Thank you all.

For the money, it has to be the Lite Ash all the way. Very nice guitar.

My Lite Ash is a Korean Model, not a MIM. I love it, it came with Alnico Pups, which rock. Good luck with your 50's Tele, it will Rock

Take a look at my website and you will see a left handed kilt wearing tele player. The blond is a Custom Shop 52 Tele circa 1988-89.

I say, "Go for the Nash tele." That's a pretty cool tele with all the necessary sounds-- front pickup for classic tele jazz sound, middle pickup for the strat, and back pickup for the country twang and raw distortion of a tele. A sweet guitar.
