Another epic NGD: 1956 Telecaster
After that '64 SG, i just couldn't leave well enough alone. I present a very fine '56 telecaster blonde whiteguard. this thing sounds amazing. A/B'd the bridge pickup against a real '52 flat pole and it was every bit as good to my ears. it's in relatively pristine condition for a '50's tele.
it cost me dearly though--had to sacrifice one of my '59 goldguard jazzmasters and my '59 ES-175. i'm sure i'll catch some shit on this board for giving up a goldguard--but hell, i've got another one--how goldguards do you need?? amirite?

The cool thing about fretless is you can hit a note...and then renegotiate.

I dunno man, that's a lot of money for a beat-up used guitar.

I'm not sure I'll ever own a vintage guitar, but a nice 50's tele seems impossible to top. Beautiful.

A guitar I'd love to play, there's not much north of one of these.
Well done you.
