      @xtcclassic That looks amazing. I played a Gretsch G6122T-62 Chet Atkins once but man they're just so damn big. Same goes for the ES-335. Telecasters are the one for comfort IMO (regardless of your opinion of Fender!)

      The devil is in the detail..

        Oh I’m a longtime Tele player, if I could only have one guitar it would be a Tele. This Gretsch thing is a fairly new thing to me. I bought my first one less than a year ago. I’ve had my Tele for 20 years or so.

              Since that pic was taken, I’ve replaced the pickups with TV Jones (Setzer bridge and Classic neck) and replaced the stock bridge with a stainless steel Tru-Arc. It sounds absolutely amazing now, it’s tied with my Tele as my number one. Never thought I’d see that happen. Here it is now:

                  Just got this elusive reverb pedal for a bit of a steal thanks to good old eBay.
                  Has 16 algorithms and a tonne of modulation options. It even has the flappy bird game installed on it!
                  weird.

                    I accidentally bought 2 guitars off eBay the other day…  ::)
                    Hopefully, @AdamJ will buy one off me (no pressure) so I don't feel so stupid. Pics will follow but they're just a couple of Squire Telecasters as I'm looking to get back into playing and didn't want to go crazy. Plus I planning up upgrading the pickups and electronics. That is all.

                      The only thing better than a Telecaster is another Telecaster.  😉

                              Have been playing a Taylor acoustic for quite some time, but recently made the switch to a Fender Performer HSS Strat. Can't ask for more! I'm loving the buttery smooth playability after having played acoustic for a long time!

                                        I don’t own either but I worked in guitar stores for 18 years so I’m plenty familiar with both, and I prefer the Jazzmaster for the regular Fender scale length and IMO it has a more distinctive tone. Depends on what you’re after sound-wise.

                                          So, I accidentally bought two because I thought the one guitar that I "won" on eBay got cancelled. It disappeared from about an hour. Then this lovely looking sunburst double-bound Tele came up for sale and i just went for it… 5 minutes later the other one reappeared. I'm far too English to make up an excuse to get out of the sale.

                                          It's all good. I'll be able to sell it. @AdamJ said it looks nice but the pickups are garbage. As expected. May keep it and use it to upgrade and tweek. The case is pretty nice  😛

                                          I have a friend with a few PRS… they're really nice they just don't do it for me aesthetically... and i'm not good enough to do one justice.
