I'm also a Fender man... :) The Tele bug bit me!

USP45Tim · 04-04-2009, 05:56 PM

Just got this one today. Can't wait until it shows up next week.

While thinking about Diceman's baby shit, I've decided to name this one baby puke.

Ekoms · 04-04-2009, 06:00 PM

I really like that color actually. nice score!

SoundwaveLP · 04-04-2009, 06:50 PM

As I said in your other thread, awesome!

djwilbanks · 04-04-2009, 07:07 PM

Sweet, Tim.

StrangerNY · 04-04-2009, 07:09 PM

That's a great color. Congrats.

The_Sentry · 04-04-2009, 07:33 PM

That's nice, Tim.

It looks like somethin's finally going to keep those PRS's of yours company.

USP45Tim · 04-04-2009, 07:41 PM

Thank God!!! Whenever I first started in '96, I thought Tele's were the ugliest thing on earth. Now look... lol

That's too damn nice of a color for a Tele! Must be MIA?

I damn near traded my Peavey C30 for an "Avocado" colored partscaster a couple weeks ago (licensed allparts neck, Warmoth body I think...). It was damn close, but I backed out in the end. I think I'd be a fool to get rid of that amp... even though I still can't afford the tubes it needs.

In summary, nice guitar.

USP45Tim · 04-04-2009, 08:08 PM

It's actually a Mexi. model! I figured that if this one is a good player, I'll graduate into the USA models.

The color is actually sage green, but amongst players, it's called monkey poop.

Fracture · 04-04-2009, 08:27 PM

I really like that color actually. nice score!

+1

I think Fenders look good with a solid color, and they do have quite a selection.
Most of them are pretty tasteful too.

Tim did you notice the quality of the tuners?

I'll be able to tell you all about it once I get it in.

Until then, all I can do is look at these pics. lol

cobra2000 · 04-04-2009, 09:03 PM

That sure looks a lot like my lone star strat guess I'll have to start calling it baby puke too? haha

Skynyrdpicker · 04-04-2009, 09:04 PM

Beautiful Tele! You just can't beat a Tele for some things

Leumas · 04-04-2009, 09:17 PM

Tim, I'm with you. I hated Fender for years...until I bought one. That's a sweet looking Tele, congrats. I still think they're ugly as sin, but I dig 'em.

Gunner · 04-05-2009, 12:22 AM

The colour is quite distinctive. Sweet Tele. Congrats.

ojedad23 · 04-05-2009, 12:45 AM

nice color, haven't seen it on a tele before

coldsteal2 · 04-05-2009, 05:49 AM

love the 60's vibe of the color!
brings back to the days of surfin

diceman · 04-05-2009, 11:34 PM

Nice, Tim! I always hated Teles as well - but I love them now. That Ice Blue Metallic is my favorite Fender solid color.

I've got Roman starting a Rist~o~Caster Tele for me - I'm pretty excited!

An Ice Blue Metallic Tele may be in my future as well, though.

Let me know if you decide to sell it.

Congrats on the new axe - I'm sure you're gonna love it!

jalmetalman · 04-06-2009, 05:27 AM

That looks KILLER!!!!

Congrats!!!

USP45Tim · 04-06-2009, 11:21 AM

Well it looks like you have first dibs.

I've been curious about Mr. Roman's work myself. Maybe it's time to check him out.

Oh no!! We lost another guy to those tele things.

Congrats on the score man. I like the color.

USP45Tim · 04-06-2009, 11:29 AM

LoL I needed some variety in my stable and the Tele fit the bill. The color was also a deciding factor. It's coming with a tweed case that will also give it that vintage feel. This one will get broken in the old fashioned way, though.
