Teles with Vibratos! Post 'em!

Post by StevenO » Sat Feb 17, 2007 8:14 am

So yeah, I'm sort of on a tele with vibrato/trem binge at the moment. I love, love, love them. I think a nice white one with a maple neck, black pickguard and a bigsby is the classiest thing in the world. So post your favorite or even not so favorite pictures of tele's with vibrato/trems, pleasssse!

I do dig the b-16 esquire look.  One pickup with a super fancy shiny bigsby contraption around it.

  And this one falls into the category of non-offsets I regret selling.  It was a Jay Turser body upgraded with a Fender everything else...

Sorry, no photos  :( ....

But, I just picked up a black MIM Standard Telecaster. So, before too long, it will be wearing one of these:

For some reason, I don't care for B5s very much. But, I think the B16s look great. I think it is because it is all one piece and doesn't look all jumbled up like the extra mounting plate does with the other model. That is all relative though because I definitely wouldn't turn down a Telecaster with a B5.
