Elliot, how do you think the CIJ fenders compare to the USA and Custom shop stuff? I've always been really impressed by them for the most part.

Well, I've been with Fender since 1979 and they occasionally will do favore like this for me. I would say that it compares favorably with Custom Shop stuff, aside from having real hands on involvement with a Master Builder. They really have an amazing talent for accuracy and their reissues are generally dead nuts on. Not just Fenders either. I've got a couple of the John Lennon Casinos that are real time machine guitars, incredibly like the real thing from the '60's. This Blue Flower Tele is probably just as good a guitar as the real thing from '68.
