Just wanted to share a couple of pix of my brand new 2008 American Standard Telecaster! I managed to pick this up at my local music store in Buffalo just before the prices went up...

I've been playing a MIM Strat for the last several years but decided to upgrade to the Tele after trying one out a few months back. It's the most comfortable guitar I've played yet, and I love the Blizzard Pearl finish.

First of all, Welcome to the forum and congratulations! :) I did not have a tele in my collection and did the exact same thing a couple of weeks ago before the price increase. Nice! 8)

Very cool looking Tele. Congrats, you made a wise decision to beat the price increase.

I did the same thing and bought a 3 color sunburst American Standard Tele a few weeks ago. It's good to be a smart Fender shopper. :)

You do know whats going to ahppen now? you are going to want another one because these guitars are addictive. I have two that I bought within two months of eachother and want another now.

Nice score.

Thanks for the replies, guys! Yeah, you're right about this type of thing getting addictive. I'm already making plans to upgrade my my amp!

Yeah, that's Blizzard Pearl -- I figured it would be appropriate for a guy from Buffalo!
