Hi guys, I'm looking at getting myself a tele. I'm a fan of the HW1 series and was thinking between the the HW1 tele and the HW1 Texas Tele.

Could you guys share your thoughts on which could be a better option.

Thanks my fender friends!

I was looking at them the other day the the main difference I can see is the Texas Hwy 1 has an Ash body and the logo is different. Also the Texas version has 3 brass saddle barrels. Other than that it seems they are exactly the same other than the price, $200 more for the Texas Highway one.

I have a HWY 1 and absolutely love it. I tried both and for me and my taste I prefered the HWY 1 standard over the Texas. Both are fantastic guitars and both play very well. I would say try both and make your decision from there...:) either way you will have a fantastic guitar!!!

The Texas Tele comes with hotter "Texas Special" pickups and is styled more after a '52 Tele (hence the 3 brass saddles). I own one and like it alot
