Well 2018 was an update to the HotRod Deluxe (now at version IV) … anyone think I shouldn't get one? Heard some clips and I may not be able to help myself

Re: Fender apparently just doing whatever this year...
So there's a Deluxe Nashville Tele for sale locally that's I've been drooling over. Decided to go try one out at a local shop before making an offer and it was... alright. Just nothing really special. Didn't speak to me at allLurker13 wrote:Apparently Fender is also doing this this year: https://shop.fender.com/en-US/electric- ... 03500.html

However, I tried one of these Player Jaguars on a whim, was immediately inspired, and now I can't stop thinking about it. Love that "Tidepool" finish too. Fuck, someone needs to buy my pedals so I can justify buying one.

I am very horny for the new Ultra Telecaster. If it has a chunkier neck I might have to make a very irresponsible financial decision.

Re: Fender apparently just doing whatever this year...
It looks gross 
EDIT: Said that before I saw the non-white colours. Some of those other colours are alright. But I still think it would look better (and be cheaper) with no binding.

I like binding on a tele!
But according to https://wildwoodguitars.com/product-cat ... can-ultra/'s neck measurements the necks are a bit too slim for me. Irresponsible purchase averted.

Re: Fender apparently just doing whatever this year...
Have we talked about the Alternate Reality Tenor Tele yet? Is it weird that I actually really want one?

Wow, I was just stumbling around the Fender site and saw the new(?) Parallel Universe guitars. That Maverick Dorado and Strat Jazz Deluxe

Re: Fender apparently just doing whatever this year...
I find they are either drool worthy or complete flops. Those two look pretty awesome to me. I wish the neck on the Strat Jazz Deluxe was available on other models; it would look awesome on my Jag!coldbrightsunlight wrote:Not convinced by any of the parallel universe stuff

Re: Fender apparently just doing whatever this year...
I like the neck and colour scheme on that one actually yeah. Just something about the configuration doesn't do it for me
