Hey there everyone! I have been a lurker for a while, and have benefitted from a lot of threads on here, so I figured it was high time to sign up and say hello. I have been playing guitar off and on for 25+ years, mostly acoustic. In my old electric days, I was always a Strat guy, and tended to think of the Tele as that spanky thing country guys played.
In more recent years, I have gotten into guys like Tom Petty and Bruce Springsteen, and come to appreciate the Telecaster. I finally took the plunge this year with a Squier Classic Vibe '50s, and it instantly became my #1. I play in a band doing pop and rock covers from the 1960s to the 2010s, and the Tele does everything I ask of it.
I'm sure I'll get around to posting photos and such later - for now just wanted to make my first post and say hello.
