Nice.

I think I would prefer rosewood, but that looks well.

I was really looking for a rosewood originally, and perhaps later down the road I can get one from Warmoth.

But, I really dig the sound of the thinline reissues, and almost all (if not all) have maple necks.

They just seem to work well with that line of Tele.

Rosewood on Tele = Waste.

I think it looks (and will definitely sound) great!

I remember those, it was a run of MIM thinlines they made in all cool Custom Colors. The Sam Ash by me had a whole wall of these things so they weren't that limited, they looked cool, but I didn't like them...but I don't like Teles so my opinion is biased.

I saved a picture on my hardrive of all the colors they came out with, cause some guy was hocking the whole set on Fleabay. I'll see if I can find it.

I've decided to take it really easy with playing due to some severe wrist/hand issues... I promised myself no more buying gear cuz it tempts me to play. I hope I dont run into one of these guitars for a while cuz I'll just have to break my promise....

I'd mint guard it for sure tho!!

Mint guard would look GREAT on it, but I really dig the white pearl pickguard on the blue.
