    Fender gets sexy right

    I love these guitars. One would make an interesting addition to any guitar harum.

    Fender has taken the wraps off its latest limited-edition lineup of electric guitars and bass guitars – a trio of models that flaunt vintage aesthetics and ‘60s-era Gold Foil pickups.

    Specifically, the drop comprises a Telecaster, Jazzmaster and Jazz Bass, with each example arriving in a choice of two colorways. For the Telecaster, Candy Apple Burst and White Blonde is on tap, while the Jazzmaster is available in Candy Apple Burst and Shoreline Gold.

    The series’ sole four-string, meanwhile, flashes either a classic Two-Color Sunburst or Sonic Blue finish.

    Looks pretty sweet!

    Not sure about the pickup switching though - I was never able to warm up to sliders. But Bigsby is cool, gold foils are cool, block inlays are cool, and the JM is the best guitar body ever designed.

      Been wanting a JM for many years. Now, that Shoreline Gold with goldfoil pups and Bigsby and block inlays is itching me too hard to ignore. Oh man, hold me down.

                        Well, that doesn't help my aversion to gold, and weird sounding pickups.

                            Ugh on the tortoise though. Worst material ever for a pickguard.
