You want a classy guitar, buy a gretsch.
Sacrilege! The beauty is in the simplicity! (but I do know what you mean ;-)

I'll go with a mint Rosewood for "classiest" (whatever that means).
That Black Double bound sure is nice too.

Teles are the perfect guitar. I love them. I'd take an early 50s blackguard over any other guitar you could offer me. But classy in this context? Nah. And no amount of bells and whistles will change that.

That said, they have a wonderful honesty, which has a certain dignity of its own.

Still, there're a lot of beautiful guitars in this thread...

The one I just restored
Classy cause she was unloved in an attic for 30 years. She's a 66 that was almost thrown out. Painted in black spray paint.
Here she is!

Black double bound is the closest a Tele will get to being classy...
