I just got done spending the most money I've spent on a guitar to date! I've been drooling over Tele's for awhile now, and one in particular at a local store. Didn't think I'd ever get it though.

I just put this on layaway:

'06 60th Anniversary American Deluxe Telecaster in Aged Cherry Burst! The picture does not come close to doing it justice! Absolutely beautiful guitar! Mine has a white pearloid pickguard.

Don't let anyone tell you that local stores can't compete with online stores either. MF sells these for $1329 and I got mine locally for $1099! Free setups for life too!

I MIGHT be able to take it home Friday, but more than likely it won't happen for a few weeks. I don't care how long it takes because this guitar plays like none other I've played before. It might just be "the one"! :) It sounds like heaven too! Had to share because the wife just doesn't fully understand! :lol:

I'll take some good pics once I have it home (gotta show off).

Thanks!!! It sounds better than it looks, actually! I'll post some clips once I have itl. I plugged it into a Deluxe Reverb (my primary amp) and I thought I was gonna cry! :) I'm very excited, to say the least.

Good for you, glad you were able to get what you wanted. :)

Awesome man! I'll bet the cherry's like really deep colored and the fretboard is way dark.

Nice guitar!

Of course you got it, they can't sell it to anyone else with your drool all over it.

Congrats on the find.
