Well you can start talking to me again....I bought my first Tele!
Well, I finally took the plunge and bought my first Tele via eBay...a 2009 Am Std in Crimson Red with a rosewood board. I have been lusting after these Crimson Teles since they came out last year and I found an auction for one which is in great shape (no scratches or anything!) for the amazing low price of....yes....$700.

I CANNOT WAIT to get home to the States and find this thing waiting for me....oh, the anxiety!

Congrats JJ. You'll have to be the one that puts the scratches and dings in it!

Congrats anyway.

Nope - doesn't work. Says that the item has "been removed"...

I'm guessing that you're dislexic, and that "figure otu hwo" means "figure out how"?.....

Bizarre. When I go through "My eBay" it comes up but when I just click on the link it doesn't....oh, well. Use your imagination for now!

Very pretty Tele, evokes an early 60s Tele.

Nice. That's just about the exact guitar that I want to buy.

Ideally, I want a guitar with a rosewood fingerboard, either a black or red finish, and three pickups, although that really isn't necessary.
