New American Standard - which one?
I'm going to place an order for one of the 2008 American Standards in the next day or so. The place I'm going through has a Crimson Red Transparent w/ maple neck and a Blizzard Pearl w/ rosewood neck. Unfortunately, I'm not able to try them out in person. I love the look of the red (I think it's cool they're using a black pickguard on the ash models) but that one weighs 9 pounds, I don't have a lot of experience w/ a lot of different Tele's, from what I've read here, 9 lbs. is a little on the heavy side. The Blizzard Pearl weighs 8.2 pounds, it's also 100 bucks cheaper. I wish I could try 'em out but I won't be able to do that and I want this to be a keeper. I'm torn between the 2. Any feedback on which one I should get? Thanks.
