Dauntless August 20th, 2009, 01:35 PM I've had mine for a couple of years now and made a few changes to her.
Wouldn't sell or trade her because she sounds so good.
She is a true light ash, not heavy like the early ones in the series.

rkwrenn August 21st, 2009, 08:38 AM Nice guitar.
I have both the Lite Ash Tele and Strat. Had them for a few years now. I'll post some pics a bit later after my kids elementary school orientation.
Cheers

Alamo August 21st, 2009, 02:19 PM I'll join, so you don't feel so all alone...:wink:
got it in 2006 and changed the tuners to Kluson styled ones with conversion bushings. I also installed an electro-socket - that's it though.
sounds great and plays nice - allthough since the Squier CV is in the house...the Lite Ash gets a little neglected^^
the CV is a tad lighter in weight.
one thing I'm not so fond of are the abalone dots. no biggie, but on dark stages, I can't see them.

Jahmbie August 21st, 2009, 02:31 PM Mine is a black Lite Ash Tele that I got in a nice gear swap. It is stock and usually kept in G tuning.
rkwrenn August 22nd, 2009, 11:48 AM Here's my pair...

I replaced the original pickguards with Fender 3 ply guards. I also removed the D/G string trees. Bridge on the Tele can top or bottom load. I have it top loaded right now but plan on going back to bottom load. Seems to sustain better bottom loaded.
Strat has a new Tusq nut. Both guitars have Schaller Mini tuning keys.
Cheers,
Bob
Beatbx August 22nd, 2009, 12:09 PM I love mine. It's my number one, you wouldn't recognize it. I don't access to any pics other than my avatar. I got a ridiculous deal on a new one a few users ago, so I went to town on it: Replaced the neck with an allparts rw 60's style, and refinished it in black nitro, compensated barrel saddles, upgraded pots, and a different bridge p/up finished it off. She's my frankentele extrordinaire!
Ptrallan01 October 17th, 2009, 07:58 PM It's my main go to for playing out side of the house. Put flatwounds on it and I'm in love.
HOBBSTER01 October 17th, 2009, 11:21 PM Mines out gettin a B/G bender installed.
Should be home this week.
Meanwhile I hope she's not jealous when she gets home to find the Buckocaster/gold sparklecaster hangin in her place.This is how she looked when she left:
OOPS! THE LITE ASH IS ON THE BOTTOM IN BLACK.
JayFreddy October 18th, 2009, 06:08 AM I've currently got two, both in natural, one with a two piece body and one with a three piece body. Put bone nuts on both of 'em, and a red tortoise guard on the three piece along with a Fender Vintage Noiseless Tele Neck pickup and new CTS pots and a Switchcraft switch. Aside from the bone nut, the two piece body is still stock and sounds great. If/when the pots or switch wear out I'll replace them with US parts, but after 4 years the original parts are still working fine. Sorry, no pics at the moment!
1960 tele October 25th, 2009, 12:00 AM i got a natural finish 3 peice body one,it has a crl switch and full size pots,has cloth wire on both pickups but not the jack, rear pu says seymour duncan front has chrome cover is this the stock setup?
