A Thinline can be sweet and nasty. You can do those soft jazz riffs, next you can't decide which distorion pedal to use. They are without a doubt, one of my favourites. I used to have a mid 80's '72 Japanese reissue (Bought new. The most expensive guitar purchase ever.). That thing was sweet!As much as I want to like f-holes on a tele, I just can't do it

No Tele should have a tuneomatic. Bigsby or Tele bridge. End of.
Funny you should say that I was thinking about that very thing at work today and came to the same conclusion. The tune-o-matic bridge just doesn’t look right, i’d go for a Bigsby.
