I've only seen one so far in a shop. I played on it for a little while. I got myself my deluxe nashville a few months prior, and it being in the same deluxe family i wanted to try it out. I liked the neck and it played fine. I was skepitical on the two tele neck pickups. The only advantage I could see would be a little less noise in positions 2 and 4. And all my guitars have vintage slotted tuners. Pop a different color pickguard on there and it'd be cool. But those are just my opinions from a short in-store tryout. Congrats on the order and have fun with it!

There's one here in Raleigh on Craigslist. Poor fella says he bought it 2 days ago then found out he needs a clutch. Now he's gonna sell it for 100 less than sticker with the tags and plastic still on it. If it's for reals.

I read about them 6 months ago, but some reason, Fender was slow in producing them. I ended up creating one myself from parts. neck from mighty might, a black tele body and all black knobs, Tuners, screws and pickups and pickguard. I installed lace sensor pickups, which have an interesting sound in the neck pickup, kind of mellow. Looks cool all back except the neck which is maple. Wish I knew how to upload photos

Find a host for you photo's like Flickr. Upload your photos there. Then right-click on them and copy it's address.

Come here for a post, click the Img button once. Paste your link. Ensure the link end's in ".jpg" or whatever format it is. If it's like "tele.jpg;j=6" erase everything after "jpg". Then after it's inserted into the post body, click the img again. You can alternatively write in the "img" code yourself once you see it.

So for example:
Click "img", it now shows in your post "[img]". Go to your photo's host website and get the address of your photo. Let's say it's a right click "copy image location" and it is "http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/tele2.jpg"
then paste it after the [img], click on the image button again (it has a start on it) and it should end up looking something like this:

Image

And it should show the photo. To ensure you have the correct address you can copy and paste that location into your web browser and you should just see the picture. If you don't see it there, you haven't got the right address.

Good luck!
