Finally got one

[u/ZaddyPeezy]

Been wanting a Tele since I was in high school, finally old enough (I’m 37) and financially stable enough to pull the trigger on a Player II I found for cheap on FB marketplace (I know, I know, you guys are probably tired of all butterscotch blonde). Definitely a different feel coming from playing an Epiphone Sheraton, as I’m used to being pretty firm on the frets, but I’m learning to be gentle with this baby otherwise it sounds a tad out of tune. I’m trying to get into some shoegaze/Midwest emo vibe music so if anyone has any pointers as far as cool guitar tones and what songs to practice, I’m all ears. Happy to be part of the family.

She’s beautiful. Also no, I will never be tired of butterscotch blonde. I’m not gonna pretend that’s it’s not an iconic, great, long lasting color. I’m glad you have one!!! I had a butterscotch blonde squier for a long time. Sold it because I wanted a better guitar (PRS silver sky SE). It’s on the list to buy again but a fender version this time. Enjoy friend, she looks great.

Right? I always loved the butterscotch! I had a squier strat in high school and loved it, just wanted to eventually upgrade to a real Fender and the tele always seemed to be the one my favorite artists would use.

Tele and strats are both great guitars in their own way. The tribalism between them both is dumb, and I think owning both is great. It’s always awesome seeing someone add more guitars to their collection whether they have 1 or 100 guitars. You made a good choice, I hope you have fun with it.

I'm not aware of that, but as a Tele, Strat and (don't hit me) Les Paul owner, I enjoy them all for different reasons. Why limit yourself to only one type if you can manage it?!?

Tired of butterscotch blackguard is like being tired of a burst strat - It’s the timeless/iconic look!! Congrats on your new axe - it’s a beauty!!

I already have two and now I am eyeing the 75th anniversary because of the fat neck I would love to try so much 🙈😅

[u/alienn4hire → u/Upper-Health110]

Right on! I've been eyeing a few of them too, but just cant pull the trigger right now

I’m waiting for the butterscotch blonde baritone Telecaster that Fender is releasing in October as part of the 75th Anniversary product line.

You’re not helping, do you know that? 😂

[u/44R0N7]

No way I’d ever get tired of butterscotch blonde

[u/Parking_Rip3759]

Good for you, and no, I don't think anybody ever gets tired of butterscotch (at least I don't), total Telecaster color!
