Sweet lookin' Tele man! Love the big Fender headstock.

What kinda bridge pickup do you have in there?

Thanks man! As do I, that was pretty much the deciding factor in buying it.

It's a GFS lil puncher rail pickup, the hot 15k one from what I can tell.

how is the puncher?
all the GFS stuff I have tried has been pretty solid

I'm liking it, alot of low end and huge output. Makes this tele sound huge! and crunchy! It needs a different neck pickup though, its half the output of the lil puncher (probably around 7-8k) and its as high up as I can get it. I'm going to put in another Fender Vintage Noiseless neck pickup like I have in my other tele. It's super quiet and around 12k output so it should match a lil better.

I always like high output bridge
and low output neck
it's like having a two channel setup

Yeah but this setup is like screaming to non-exsistent, which won't work. I use my neck pickup quite a bit, so much that my other tele only has a neck pickup haha

Nice dude, I have the 10k version of it in my VI. In retrospect the 15k would probably be better. I had it attached to a push-pull pot for coil tapping, but it turns out I pretty much only ever use it in humbucking mode, which is good because the shaft of the pot broke off in that mode yesterday.
Didn't really need a tone pot either, anyway

New Tele day for me too!

About a year ago I sold my G&L Asat Classic, and I've wondered what the hell was wrong with me ever since. So when I came across this today I had to make it happen. Not my favourite colour, but oh well.





Might as well go Uncle Grandpa style and show off a little more.

3 bolt neck. Nice!

Yeah, I thought that was cool too. I've been told it's a '95, haven't pulled the neck to verify (yet). Plays and sounds awesome, it's in great shape too. A few dings, but a lot less than I would have put on it in 18 years!

Only on G&L. The neck-body fits were sloppy on most 70's Fenders I've encountered with the three-bolt setups. A lot of guys would fold over a piece of sandpaper to put in the pocket so the neck wouldn't slide around all of the time. No concerns on G&L's execution -- they nail it.

NICE. Really love that colour/pickguard/fretboard combo. And the bigass headstock. I wish fender put those on everything.

Damn Double AA. Love it. Neck from a Tele Deluxe?

vintage Gibson, all mahogany w/ brazilian rosewood fretboard. first guitar and still play it almost daily. sounds real nice with dba fuzz war w/kill kill filter and a 62 fender reverb unit.
