Hi guys,

I will soon, probably, come in possession of an elite tele '82. I've gone through several reviews of that guitar on the net and from what it looks like it seems to be very close to what i'm looking for soundwise.

Although i like the elite my position is a bit difficult because i will have to trade a vintage reissue '52 for it.

There is no comparison between the sound these two instruments produce but i'm not much worried about that, since i'm not much of a classic tele sound fun.

What i would like to have your opinion on is if it is a fair trade, since the ri 52 is more expensive but the elite is more rare(right?)


I'd like to hear your thoughts.

Ok, here is my opinion...you can NEVER go wrong with a Fender. I am one of those who is very traditional...I don't mod my fenders..I buy them stock for a reason...for 60 odd years Fender has made the best guitars in the world. The one thing I have observed in the 35 years I have been playing alot of guys will mod and mod and mod their guitars and never find that all illusive tone...they forget that the amp is a huge factor in it. I would recommend if possible play both through the amp you use and make your judgement from there. Either way you can't go wrong. But do what you think is right for you...hope that this helps...E
