"Amazing guitar and so unique"

I love this guitar. I have owned a MIM telecaster and it was great....but it didn't even come close to the sound and versatility of this guitar. This has such a unique look to it as well and friends are just in awe of it's sound and looks.This does well with anywhere to country to blues to hard rock. Great job, Fender!
