I'd like to go ahead and be the first protest to the strat head stock. Double protest if they were specing the disproportionatly huge, beluga whale thing...LOL!

Tele heads work on strats but not the other way around.

It bothers me that so far it just says "wood tele neck.". Are we assuming that it's maple?

Jeez, y'all have already made the idea unsupportable for me. The fretboard needs to have a maple option, and the V shape has to go. How about doing an actual voting poll with everything laid out, and see what shape it takes? I've gone in on group buys for custom stuff before, so I'm game.

We have tried in the past to come up with an idea for a TDPri Tele but so many people like so many different things it was impossible to come up with some specs for Fender to make a forum inspired Tele.

But an imaginary one that would never exist is fun.

Fender already makes one I like better than all the rest the MIM 60's Classic.

We could eventually take all preferences from this thread, make a poll, then the winning option would become the feature.

Take the attributes of the 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 Build challenge winners... and combine them.
Those are obviously the exact guitars everyone would buy... according to their votes...
The TDPRI membership voted on those 4 guitars as the best made and best looking, in the last four years.

Looks like Rondo would be a better bet than Fender with that lash up .
I'll throw in a 22 fret Baja neck .
