Thanks for posting those. I have to admit though that the surf colored guitars do nothing for me and the relic jobs look awful. Thats just me though....Thats what they display at NAMM??

That Playing Cards & Roses Tele looks cool. The rest is just boring.
IMHO

Very nice stuff. Although I still never liked the Jim Root model, its blasphemy! Especially with the EMG's in it.

They ran low on neck pickups. Hmm. I'd be willing to help out, take 'em off their hands.


Thanks, Csapo.

Regarding that butterscotch one, what is up with that relic pattern??? Horrible. Looks like somebody let their 2 year old drag it down the sidewalk. Who keeps their forearm there while playing??? Just so unnatural. You would almost have to have the neck pointed towards the ground to accomplish something like that! Or the guitar up to your neck!

You'd think with all of Fender's money, they'd be able to afford to have some new guitars there. All of those guitars look old and beat up.

I actually really like relic Teles, but in my opinion those things look really lame.

Reminds me of this one.
Picking in a beer soaked, smoke filled, twanged out bar, what else would you want to play?
