YaY! Have had a telecaster in the house ever since about 1973.
Wouldn't be right without one. Or, well, I had 4 in the early 2000's,
5 or 6 in the 80's, only one in recent years.

Good luck with it. Simple as it gets, effective as a guitar can be.

I almost bought a roadworn but I picked up another Mim that was the same, not worn, and about $250 less. The roadworn had the bridge I wanted but I couldn't see spending that much more for aesthetics. Fender does a nice job of wearing them in.

Anyway here it is:

No originality but I went by feel rather than looks and that is what they had. I would have picked a blonde w/black (or a painted) but only squires fit that bill.
