I've never posted pictures here before, so let's see if this actually works. If so, I will post more later.

Here it is...my new 50's Classic Tele. I haven't played it much yet, but it sounds good so far. The finish and feel of the neck is fantastic...though it is going to take a little getting used to these vintage frets. Anyway, here are the pictures:

Thanks guys! She sure is a beauty and much different than my other Teles. I'll let you know how she sounds when I get a chance to crank her up.

Looks great!

I don't think you'll have much of a problem adjusting to the
vintage frets.

Congrats!!!

Thank you for the compliments everyone. I have played her several times over the past week and I really like it. The action is nice and low (which I like, though it is not very condusive to slide) and I like the vintage frets. It is an all-around great guitar that I'm enjoying and it was a good buy at $500.

Anyone else playing a Classic '50's Tele? What are your opinions?

Beautiful Tele ES. The vintage frets will take no time at all to get used to. Good choice on the White Blonde. Are you getting used to the 7.25" fretboard radius? Some players express their disappointment with bends. I guess it depends on what you grew up playing. We seemed to be able to bend strings rather nicely before the 9.5" radius came out. :D
