NGD: Baby’s First Telecaster (40th Anniversary Squier)

[Boudoir Guitar]

I may try snagging a Fender Nocaster PU set down the road. Put a set in a previous Tele
and really dug them.

Dude, OP said not to go Ron Ellis-ing him, mkay?!?!?!?

My bad. All apologies to @eggpl@nt .

Wait, what did I say?

I’ve never heard of Ron Ellis, but he seems to make very expensive pickups.

It's a fun little Tele.

Satin neck feels nice. Tint on the neck looks great. I hate those overly white/pale Squier Maple neck finishes.

Probably going to find some Brass Saddles ASAP. Pickups can stay for now. Not going to do the automatic
Gear Forum reaction of replacement pups. So don't be Ron Ellising me. K?

It's fun to play and is my most Telecaster Telecaster. I don't play a traditional Telecaster enough to want to
invest much $$ into that style. Crazy what you can get for $300. Crazy!

Awesome Dave, HNTGD

I recently picked up a 40th Anny Strat. Just too damn nice not to. It stays in tune, plays
great, sounds good, and is fun to play.

I dig that Mocha Satin finish. Tasty!

I’m with you! The mocha looks great and I too bought a Strat (had points on my bank card for Amazon, plus Prime Day, got it for around $40 to me. No brainer! Mocha Tele is on my list next!
