Anywho, I wanted the maple fretboard and when I saw the Daphne/maple combo in the deluxe model (w/Seymour Duncans) I could not resist. I cannot find this combination for a Telecaster anywhere, so I settled for a Strat, which is just fine with me. I need another Strat, anyway...These are out of stock everywhere so it will probably be a couple of weeks before it arrives. Can't wait!
Beautiful! Enjoy it!

About twenty years ago when my son was about fifteen we spent about three hours in GC while he played seemingly everything in there within the budget of money he had saved. Even at that age he was a magnificent guitarist. When we first walked in the door and he told the guy what he was looking for and his price range, the salesman handed him a Squeir and he wouldn’t play it. Finally the salesman said “humor me, just play it for a minute.” As soon as he got about three notes into his practice lick his face lit up. He took it home.

Since then he has graduated college and gone through several guitars, but still has that old Squeir.
