Title: New Fender
Post by: cc407 on June 02, 2013, 03:48:01 PM
Went to store to check out an amp. Grabbed Tele off wall to use.
Went home with Tele.
Deluxe Nashville Tele, ash body, with a Strat pickup in the middle. Very sweet!

I love that pickup configuration on a Tele, because I'm not a big fan of the middle position on a regular Tele unless there's a full humbucker in the neck position; to me the middle tone is just to "hollow" sounding, for lack of a better description. I've got a couple Tele's I'd like to have set up that way.

Congrats on the new toy!  :thumbsup

My main partscaster has an EMG bridge pu in the middle along with a regular set of tele EMG's.

Very nice !
Congratulation !

The REAL Bill Lawrence? Or the other Bill Lawrence?  :whistling:

Nice looking Tele's all around.
