    Very nice! And the Surf Green is a knockout as well. Wondering will they produce an MIM model for half that? 2K is a bit much for my pocketbook at this time.

    I played 3 of these at a store and all were great. Congrats on getting what is surely an equally great guitar!

    The only real Esquire I have is a MIM 50s Classic.

    But, there's just something about looking at the headstock and seeing that word, there. Magic!

    Gee that's a beautiful guitar. I bet it wears a white guard just as fine as a black one!

    And you're right – the real deal about nitro is the smell!

    Congrats, it’s beautiful!
    What are the 3 positions on that model? Same cap as the originals, Eldred mod or else?

    Position 1 (closest to the bridge pickup) - going straight to the output jack, Tone control bypassed.
    Position 2 (middle) - like a regular Tele bridge pickup setup.
    Position 3 - Tone control bypassed, but there's a pre-set tone roll off.
