Floral Teles are a classic, I think it's appropriate for all the genres in which you'd normally see a telecaster...
Nope. Those tele bridges don't intonate properly.
Part of the charm, and just one of many problems with most guitars.
yes, it's giggable.

Of course I would! :mrgreen:

Can I wear an artifical hippie headband with it?
I was undecided for the longest time. Now I know the apprehension. My internalized concept (and hazy memory) of the 60's era flower designs were different that what's on that guitar. I think they were brighter and bigger? This has too much of the Prozac inspired pastels for me. I was a yes, but I'm going no. Not a phobe though!!

As long as you don't dye your hair. Nature man, nature. (Now, where'd I park my Lincoln........)

Make it the pink Paisley and you've got a deal.
I started with nothing - and I've still got most of it left.
Did you know that the word "gullible" is not in any dictionary?

I wouldn't mind because it is a real Fender. I know it is wrong, but I am a little bit gear snob. I have played my Squiers live, but I admit I want a name guitar when playing in front of people.
Actually, lots of guitars looked like that back in the psychedelic 60's. Check out Jimmy Page's Telecaster in this old video.

I'd definitely play that onstage! :D
So would I! However, I doubt my teenage daughter and son would make an appearance in the audience. :P
I LOVE the pink paisley!!!
The MIJ Fender re-issues are available though you may have to buy them on eBay.

Wes, that's an led-zep awesome video. Love it. Did you see where Page's shirt actually looks like the guitar I started this thread with? :D
Looks like my memory of 60's colors is off. :oops:

Oh dear, what a terrible thing to do to a Tele! Let's face it, the Tele is a design classic - anything other than the normal colours , it just doesn't look right!
I'll stick with plain ol' white if it's all the same to you......
:D :D :D

Don't feel bad... my memory of the whole 60s is off. 70s too, for the most part :)
Every time I see pictures of myself from that era I think that can't be me... I have better taste than that.
