Never been a big fan of that body, but that fucker looks great.
Very nice...good to see one of the big 2 doing something interesting even if it's not anything really new.
Want!
I must be the only guy that doesn't really dig P 90's
You must be. I'm not saying I always prefer them to humbuckers but a good P90 is a special thing.
I've been wanting to add something with p90s to the collection. Saw something like this on eBay but the guy had aged the metal parts with some kind of old gold varnish. Said it was custom. Never realized that this was a regular fender model.
Also been checking out that Fender semi hollow telecaster with the set neck and p90s and tuneomatic. Jay Adkins model or something. Looks great in trans black.

Oof. That's nice. I'm also usually in love with the set-neck spalted Tele:

Not p90's, but as long as we're throwing around wacky Fender stuff.
What's the deal with that tele? How's the price lookin'? I want one, somethin' proper.

Just hollered at my boy, I'm getting this tele in trans black in a couple days.
I LOVE fender guitars but the ones in this thread are kind of ugly in my opinion.
me either :-\
My tele is on it's way.

Down tuning and short scale necks are not usually a great combo.

Works for me and my Les Paul.
Does it work so well that you're willing to dant off another 3/4"? Jaguar's only have a 24" scale.
Yeah, I don't think the Jag is the best for low tunings. If I get the fucker, it'll be set up in open E as a dedicated slide guitar

We're building the whole thing from scratch ourselves (it's his second guitar) so I guess we'll make it work. He really just wants to build another guitar so we'll make a fun project of it. He bought the fretboard for his last guitar, everything else he made himself. I want a Les Paul-like neck, it's going to be one ugly fucker. :)
$750 is kinda steep for me. musicians' friend has a gently used one for $600, but i dunno... goddammit, it's so pretty. maybe there'll be post-christmas sales.
That's why I opted for the other one :D

If this just had a bridge P90 and a wraparound bridge kinda like a Les Paul jr, Fender style I'd be all over it.
I was looking at that photo thinking "but it DOES have a bridge p-90! what the hell is he talking aboot?"
then it occured to me maybe you wanted it to not have neck pickup?
The black one with the F hole Fender says is 24.75" scale so it should downtune as well as an SG does.
I found one for $500 one CL but the guy never emailed me back... typical Craigslist flakiness.

longer scale guitars downtune just fine.

Sweetwater has the 3 payment thing on that sweet tele. If you can swing 250/month for three months, might be worth considering. They'll send it to ya after the first payment is made.
What the fuck, diddler? Now I have to fucking buy one.
fucking fuck.

thanks diddler.
I know, shit. Now I'm seriously considering it too. Can't think which of the guitars i already have i'd want to get rid of- trying to do the "1 in, 1 out" GAS management plan, Hasn't worked for shit with amps yet................
That may very well be a fine guitar up there but its not very telecaster-like to my eyes.
The very things that define a telecaster other than the body shape are all missing. single coils, clunky three saddle bridge, slab body.
>:(
Those are still single coils, old man. ;)
F-hole you, Choves.
Chovie's right, that ain't no Tele.

Those are Teles.
I prefer the 72 Tele Deluxe with the two wide range HB's.

Prefer as in own/play? I have a Strat neck I don't want to make another Strat out of, and I'm angling for a '72 Tele Deluxe. Open for opinions and/or body and pick up suggestions!
I have played them and I enjoy that sound quite a bit. Even with a shit ton of gain they maintain plenty of snarl. I like snarl.
As for pup/body suggestions - Fender wide range HB's and an alder (standard) or (even bitey-er) ash body. YYYAAARRRR!!!!
Man, I've been finding myself eyeing the Jaguar from the OP lately. Awesome looking guitar but I'm controlling myself until I get my tax return at least.
I play a jazzmaster. It's all i got, it's all I need. I am gonna put in FTW on my jazzmaster just now decided it. One day it's gonna come to your town.
