Re: SDUG Ultimate Axe - Category 9; TELE Finals !!!!

I voted American Flag. Man - I see that thing and I just see Springsteen and hear BORN - in the USA!!!!!!

For real for playing - I might seriously go for the Squire Vintage mod. Mini - start - tele and a five way switch is a lot of tonal goodness. Throw split on that mini and man...

Had a Valley Arts/Sammick Ray Benson model like that. It was awesome.

I know Jolley has a few Teles - including that righteous Charvel "Barney" caster...

I think he made the right choice.

Thanks! It definitely is a head turner/conversation piece, but it is a really great tele regardless of looks. Here it is in action playing the song it was made to play!

I've got a few good ones. I think I made the right choice as well.

Did you get that from that DeLacugo guy? It looks like one of the bodies that he makes.

It's a tie right now with 49 votes total, but only 18 of those for the two tied at 9 each. That's 31 votes that could make for a whole different game. Ties are Boring Town, this is Barter Town - two men enter, one man leaves!!! LOL

Thunderdome appeals to me. As does Tina Turner in chainmail stockings. Tie breaker it is!

You have until tomorrow evening to submit THREE pics of your guitar - Telegib or Blue ESP and we will tie break!

I'm not normally into blue guitars, but it sure makes the grain pop nicely.
