I have 2 TSO's (Tele shaped objects) - a G&L Bluesboy, and a Squier '72 Thinline w/wide range HB's. I also own 2 SSO's.
The Bluesboy's hardware is more solid and of higher quality than on either of my Squiers, as is my G&L Ascari. The Bluesboy was my first decent electric. After adding to my collection over the years, I have to say that I find the Humbucker to be muddy sounding and that mud seeps into the middle position a little too. If I had to do it over, I would have bought the ASAT. Classic Vibe Teles and Strats get great reviews. I would check them out as well as the MIM Players.

In the end even my tech couldn't figure it out so I threw in the towel and redid the whole thing using a solderless Tele control unit and threw in a "Jerry Donahue" and a Gotoh 6 saddle bridge to boot. As a mod platform it's turned out to be a lot of guitar for reasonable bucks." Last edited by PAPADON; 12-09-2019 at 04:05 PM. |

I’m thinking this seems like a good buy. My local GC has one in stock that I’m going to go tryout this week. I’ve never bought from GC but $550 for a players series seems like a great deal.

I recently acquired a Squire Contemporary HH Telecaster in a trade deal, and I’m very impressed with the build quality and playability. Some very cool features like a 12” radius neck, strat style bridge and belly cut, and a gorgeous Metallic Red (not sparkle) Finish. All Hardware seems solid and The factory bucker pickups sound pretty good too! Some of These Pac Rim guitars are a great bang for the buck IMO.
Worth a look

The cool thing about electrics, is you don’t have to spend as much for great quality like you do with acoustics.

I picked up a used 72 tele reissue semi-hollow thinline (MIM) for 450.
It has proven to be a great workhorse for any style, and it is now my number 1 go to guitar for almost all gigs.
