Thanks, but no thanks - I already have one !

The '60s Classic Tele is definitely one of the best reissues that Fender makes.

I changed my pickguard for a clean white one, though. The green "nitrate guards" was typical on the Custom Telecaster from '59 - '64, but wasn't very common on the standard Teles except for a short period of time around '63 -'64. (They were discontinued after 1964 due to being highly flammable).

The all-white or the 3-ply white would be at least as period correct.

Mine weighs 8.13 lbs, which is quite normal for an alder Tele, I guess.

Throw a Glendale bridge and compensated brass saddles on it and it would by my Tele's twin!

Eric, are you bidding? I think you need it for a day or two!

Man I want one of those with a b-bender. Looks like the guy got a pretty good deal on this one.
