Thanks 64...

Yes, it's a tough choice.

Both the BG and the WG come with original case although the BG's is pretty beat.

The problem with the WG (1954) is the weight. Just under 8 lbs. It does have a flat pole pup though.

My first try at this was a refin broadcaster. Great guitar but enough "issues" that I felt I was WAY overpaying. However, it was 6.5 lbs and ULTRA resonant. So now I feel like I need a light tele.

These 2 are better priced for what they are. Hell, for the BG, I can sell the case for 5K and then get a hell of a decent deal.

I am dealing with 2 pretty reputable dealers. One of them is pretty well known for teles.
