Before I answer that question, I'd like to point out that I obviated icemanning Aceman by waiting until the guitar actually arrived, even though it's been several days since I snagged it off Reverb.
Now down to business: No, it's not a drunk zebra. It's a Squier Cabronita with Bigsby!
I've been wanting something with a vibrato on it so I can play some surf guitar at home for fun. What's a hardcore Tele guy to do? I hate Strats, so I was considering Jazzmasters and Jaguars, just the low-end VM versions. I considered adding a Bigsby to my MIM Tele, but it's taken me years to get that guitar "just right" and I didn't want to risk messing it up. So I started searching eBay for Teles with Bigbsys, and saw one of these. Duh! The perfect answer to the question, "What's a hardcore Tele guy to do?" I don't know why I didn't think of it sooner.
It's a beauty, but it needs a set up. The action is way too low and buzzy everywhere. No problem, though, the bridge is all the way down so I'm not expecting any problems getting a bit of space under those strings.
I'll try get some fresh pictures tomorrow of my 3-Tele arsenal.
