    I just ordered a Squier Classic Vibe 50's Tele, the white translucent finish one after selling my Epiphone Dot.

    Being here on the Telecaster Mecca, I couldn't deal with the itch no more lol.

    Anyways, the guitar is supposed to be here on Thursday or Friday.

    I've been binge watching videos about the guitar and the only complaint that people is the saddles not being brass. does that even matter that much?

    Thank you all for your time, let me know what I should expect when it arrives, keep me busy, I'm impatient lol

    Cheers!

    Biting the tele bullet sounds a lot better than biting a Bullet tele :lol:

    Play it and if it matters to you, you can swap out the saddles.
    Congrats and enjoy!

    Report back on how you feel about the neck. People seem to either love it or hate it, being on the slimmer side. Great quality guitars, though. Good modding platform, but sounds and plays fine out of the box.

    CV is not a Bullet. But I would still have an Affinity for it.

    I didn't notice any tonal improvement, I just like the way they look.
    I hope you are as happy with yours as I am with mine. These are great guitars.
