In Aged Cherry Sunburst

I saw one in a shop, and it was one of the prettiest guitars I've seen. The AmDlx has top binding and a backside cutout.

It seems like all Fender's Teles have gone to the 6 saddle bridge. Am I wrong?

I own one, and I get more compliments on it's looks and tone than any other guitar I have, other than my Gibson ES-335. It's light, has the belly contour, S-1 switching, and great neck. What more can you ask for?! I got mine used in a pawn shop, a few dings, but got it for $800 out the door. I really enjoy it, and it's the Tele I reach for most often, over my Baja, Parts Tele w/ Vintage Noiseless PUS, 50's Classic, and American Series Teles.

Hey Carmine, welcome to the forum!

As for that model of Tele, the pickups sound funny to me. Everything else about it is wonderful.

That's kind of a rough exposure, but yes I think that's it.

isnt it beautiful?

One of my bandmates has that one in Cherry Sunburst. Beautiful guitar, and the pickups are very hot. More suited to rock and roll, and less Tele-like...They do sound great, though.
