rct Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 '97 California Fat Telecaster, Vintage White. It's had in it, in no particular order: Joe Bardens, Lindy Fralins, Seymour Duncan Stacks, Customme Shoppe Texas Specials, and some other pair of Fenders I can't remember. Currently another pair of Seymour Duncan stacks, my favorite Tele pickups I think. Grovers, Dunlop Straplocks, Pearl Knobs, ElekktroSokket jack thingy. 4th or 5th volume pot, 4th or 5th switch, could stand a re-fret, two big cracks up in the headstock, some gashes on the back of the neck that have been filled in by Luther, and cymbal bites all over the pointy end. It's had a pretty good life, rode hard and put up wet. It is my #1, when I think of the word "guitar" this is it. It will go in the box with me at the end. rct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

surfpup Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Does it have the requisite R.C.T. neck plate? :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tx-ogre Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Damn. You keep this up and I will have to finally break down and buy a Tele. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rct Posted May 27, 2017 Author Share Posted May 27, 2017 Does it have the requisite R.C.T. neck plate? :unsure: Oh absolutely. It has the oldest, prolly 25, 26 years old that neckplate. It's also in my oldest SKB, that's prolly 30 years old now. It's shot. I gotta get a worthy case for that thing. rct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Megafrog Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Teles are great workhorses. Way less fragile than a Gibson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfpup Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Teles are great workhorses. Way less fragile than a Gibson. No doubt. I had one fall of the wall the other day - poor anchoring of the wall hanger on my part. Not only did it survive, it was still in tune! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kidblast Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 ah yes. not much to not love there. What pickups are you using Ron? Noisless? Duncans? put a similar pickgaurd on my 97 Tele Std, natural finish. I had to replace my Case too.. tweed Musicians Gear case from MF. (60 bucks??). a bit too deep tho, so a folded up towel sits on the bottom to lift the body up so it sits properly on the neck supports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have one in the Esquire too. I may get something sexy case, the black/gray tweed Fender maybe. rct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I opted cheaply! it's good sturdy case but not a perfect fit. meh-- it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Scales Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Tomorrow night, I'll be using my youngest guitar, but that which I've owned the longest. Hmm, it's been a while. Fingers crossed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
