Hot or Not? TELECASTER THINLINE SUPER DELUXE

The white and gold one (or is it blue and black) is even gaudier.

I'd go with the Cabronita Thinline, but it seems they don't make them anymore.
 
Too blingy. However, I do like that Fender finally has a filtertron model with a tone control.

Nope. Maybe as a 5th Tele in a collection, but as is I would choose many other Tele's before even picking that one up.
 
Always liked to look at them. Not sure I want one.

There were two of them (MIJ) among the trailer full of gear that was stolen along with the van that A Flock of Seagulls had taken from the parking lot of their hotel in Downey about two years ago. None of the gear was ever recovered. The entire touring band lost everything. Last I heard, cops had no leads at all. You would think the thieves would get popped trying to unload some of it. Especially stuff like the entire contents of the merchandise table. Some asshole has like a thousand "A Flock of Seagulls " tour shirts in his garage.
 
That is totally hot! It's the same pick guard that was on my Classic Player Thinline Deluxe, but I really like the idea of the Filtertrons instead of the Wide Range humbuckers.

I dig the white one, but then I have this one, so go figure.

It's OK, but it's basically just a tarted up Cabronita Thinline IMO. I already had a Cab Thinline, and it was nice, but I prefer my Gretsch.
