THINLINE - Poll.....

I've been loving my new Thinline reissue's and was interested in seeing how many other Thinline owners (All Thinline Teles included) are here at the TDPRI.

Here's the Poll:

What do you have a Vintage, MIM, Or MIJ
What year Vintage, 69', or 72'

OK, here we go:

I have:

2006 MIM 72 Thinline Sunburst
2007 MIM 72 Thinline Natural

I have a '97 American Thnline that is not a reissue or vintage model. It is closest to teh '69 model as far as the vintage models go because of the single coils, but has the standard American tuners, bridge, and 22 fret neck. They made them for about 3 or 4 years. I'll post a picture tomorrow. I'm staying at the in-laws tonight!

Squier Protone Thinlines with two single coils were made in Korea a few years back.

Squier Vintage Modified Thinlines with two single coils just started production in China in 2007.

There were also Squier Master Series Thinlines with two single coils, looks like they were in production since 2004 and made in China, but I just noticed they have disappeared from the Squier product page so they must be discontinued now.
