Looking to buy my second electric guitar!

[iknownothing]

I don’t do country music whatsoever, but I have seven Telecasters. There’s just something about ‘em that you won’t find in any other guitar…

sold.

Tele. Careful though. Your 2nd guitar will soon be a 3rd. Then 4th. then 5th. then 6th, 7th, 8th, etc. etc.
You've been warned.

I cannot lie I am literally so excited for that xD

The question is what is your other guitar and what are you looking to get out of your second?

I am a squier strat owner which i got with a starter sort of bundle about a decade ago.

I have been trying to learn to do basic set-ups on it, and well... it's going okay. Lol

A 2nd guitar will be fun to have as an actual tool, for playing out in performances and professional settings.

Good move! Always learn how to do your setup on every guitar you buy. That tele will setup very similar to your Strat. It's not hard, just takes a little patience in the beginning, and a set of luthier tools which you don't have to spend a lot of money on right away. Let us know how it works out.

I like my Epi

Uhhh Cheech you don't like your Epi, you love your Epi

I started out with a MIM HSS Strat and a Modeller. I thought that would cover all my possible hobby home player needs forevermore.

I only have 5 guitars, 5 tube amps, a bunch of Hotone minis, a Yamaha THR10 and shelves of pedals as well now, about a decade on.

A Strat and a Tele…? I know I’d have an itch for some kind of LP.

I hope your GAS isn’t as insistent as mine! Enjoy!

Look, I’m not attacking you personally or anything. Just saying that Mexican Fenders are consistently good. Epiphone just doesn’t have that track record.

I would disagree with that based on my experience with MIM crap QC but its different experience for everyone

I love my Epi LP, but can’t argue the Schizo QC from guitar to guitar.

I love my Epi LP, but can’t argue the Schizo QC from guitar to guitar.

It has gotten a LOT better since about a year after the IBG line was introduced. The first year was a little iffy, but has gotten much more consistent since.

I’ve got lots of various Epiphone SGs and love all of them.
I never made the same connections with my Gibson SGs mainly to do with the necks shapes and thickness.
I’ve got a few excellent Strats but the Tele / Thin line is my every day guitar just to pick up and mess about with .
