Much better than the 52. Most tele-enthusiasts will agree that no tele comes perfect right out of the factory. Some kind of somethin' always has to be tweaked or modified or souped up in some way or another.
I respectfully disagree with almost everything you say. Someting tells me you're not very familiar with the '52 RI.

You're entitled to an opinion though ...

MINE is that the '52 RI is the best guitar Fender has produced since the early ones - maybe even better.
