A very Nice Tele

Hi, y'all

The thing is that I got to this Tele thing by looking at the relics in this forum, that's where I fell in love (or had an affair) with a Telecaster. The thing is I just bought this nice Olympic white (almost TV yellow) Telly. It's almost perfect and sounds a lot like the nicer Squiers, it's got an original Fender 3-saddle bridge, top-hat switch, Big dome knobs, 22 fret tinted maple neck and the shiny, mirror-like glossy finish almost flawless so I really don't know what to do, do I leave it like it is or relic it all the way??? :confused:

waddaya think??? I'll post pics as soon as I get my camera back

I think you should do what makes you happy :razz:

My advice in this situation is the same advice I'd give to someone who wants a tattoo. Wait a year. If after a year, you still like the idea, you're less likely to regret your decision. I say play it as is for a while. If nothing else, it'll give you time to research the best techniques and you'll get some natural wear and tear in the meantime.

Sell your guitar and buy a relic.
