Just say "NO" to 3200.00 Teles...

...I do like the fact that you can open your beer with the headstock though...

 

[Dogsinplastic]

I find single coil mounting rings to be horrid. They pretty kill any chance of my aesthetic appreciation of a guitar. As such, despite my massive love of Teles, this one can suck a bag of...well, you know.

 

[Chad]

I find single coil mounting rings to be horrid.

This. I get it if you are building the guitar yourself and aren't so hot with a router to get it that close around the neck pickup, but for $3200 you better be good enough to get that route done right.

I live in a state where the University of Tennessee Volunteers orange is everywhere. No more orange please!

 

[Elias Graves]

$3,200 for a poplar tele? Umm, no.
Looks cool, but that's nuts.

 

[Guitar Heel]

Looks neat, but not $3200 neat.

 

[Packerbacker]

I agree-too expensive.

 

[Coralkong]

That color is horrendous.

 

[OGG]

Yellow fail

 

[jp_nyc]

Just in case you need an expensive guitar to take hunting and PRS doesn’t have anything that suits you.

 

[dougk]

I really try to be a rationale, polite person who really tries to only say good things about other peoples work... but really? 3200 dollars for another f'ing tele clone?

Ugh.

 

[DFB]

Someone is huffing too much paint

Ugh.

I try to do that as well. There's a lot of work, tooling, planning and blood & tears that go into making guitars and I hate to rain on parades. But I gotta agree. A telecaster just isn't that hard to make and the woods aren't hyper exotic. It's poplar, fer crying out loud. I can buy that at Home Depot.

 

[VoidTerraFirma]

Pretty cool for $1000 bucks.

 

[reverend1]

Hahahahahahaha, no.

[CBHScott]

I saw the Neville booth at last year's Chicago area guitar show. Pricey Teles abounded.

Not interested.

 

[Flatspotter]

Another $3000 Tele clone. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
