MIJ Boxer Telecaster

I think they are cool, probably wouldn’t buy one though, too speedy

 

Isn’t everything Fender makes now effectively limited edition?

 

For $700...sure.

 

This is super cool. However, I may be crazy, but I would have a hard time buying a Tele with humbuckers on it because I don't have one with tele single coils, lol

 

I got this. Don't need that.

Looks nice tho

 

I think they’re killer. Dig the strat and bass versions, too. I’d totally play that. And at $1500+ for the AmPro I don’t think it’s out of line for an MIJ.

 

I like em...but I seem to remember them making a debut in the 90’s? Idk.

the Inca silver is sweet...I think the neck profile is a bit shredder, which I like. Definitely would be swapping the bridge HB for a lollar noval T (or similar single coil).

 

I like the Boxer Stratocaster in silver finish, quite honestly.

I like one Volume Knob, one Tone Knob.
I like the output jack on the bottom, not the face.

It sounds like it coil-taps nicely.

I really love the black trim and black headstock face.

 

Straight 12 is perfect. I might be looking at my next acquisition.

 

Kinda-sorta reissue of the Contemporary Tele of the mid-80s but no whammy bar! Evidently they were called "Boxer Series" in other parts of the world than the USA. But on the plus side they are using a satin finish on the back of the neck instead of the glossy black finish of the originals. I haven't seen the Tele in person yet but the Strats have been out for a few months now.

At any rate here's an original from the 80s:

 

what was that seinfeld bit about the Ford LTD? "Yes, it's 'limited' to the number we can sell."

 

Yep. 12 is about perfect. I’ve added the strat to my list of possible S style candidates.

 

I already checked that box for far less $$$. The best part is this Affinity is my #2 of 6.
