I think it's the standard model. The deluxes have a bound fretboard and block inlays, I believe. This one has a better top than the other standards that I've seen -- maybe it was an option.

Okay. So, I've been playing the AC15 for a few days now, and I've noticed that the reverb adds a good deal of hiss to the sound of the amp when engaged.

I use the Cool Cat as a vibrato pedal.

This thread is making me think that I need to acquire some boutique pedals.

Here's another G&L endorsement.

I bought an ASAT Classic Thinline in 2003, and love it. It's probably the combination of build quality and pickups, but it's incredibly versatile. I helped a...

Very nice guitar. I just scored a 99/2000 Am. STD Tele last week, which is, I guess, the predecessor of the AmSE.

Sounds like a great deal -- esp. with the upgraded pickups! Enjoy . . .

Yeah. I was thinking about picking up an MIJ 60's style Tele on ebay, but I might have to find a way to afford one of these instead. The Lake Placid Blue looks particularly sweet.
