Hello all-

I am huge on Fender. I have a 57 American Vintage as well as a 65 Twin Reverb but I have recently formed this new crush on the Telecaster. Any opinions on what to look for out there? I am a blues guitar player at heart and am looking for something that can give me that fat and bright Jimmie Vaughan tone but I am not an advocate for owning signature models, I like my guitar to have its own personality. I love the soft V neck on my Strat, are there any Telies with that? I have been doing some research but feel lost in the sauce because of the abundance out there.

Please throw some suggestions my way.

-Paul

I suggest:

'52 reissue (be sure to scour ebay. hell, here is one now for you, no bids on it:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... tsupported

OR

a Highway One Texas Telecaster (Basically a '52 reissue only in Honey Blond and Sunburst)

http://cgi.ebay.com/Fender-American-Tex ... tsupported


I would watch that '52 first before buying the TT. good luck! :)
