Oh that's a beauty! The bound f-hole really makes it shine!
It would look even more Gretch-Like if it was white with gold.

Ivan, you did not look at the Fender.com page, right?

What a crying shame, Fender really screwed up with this one! It has no F brand on the body or cow pie inlays in the fingerboard! :roll: :twisted: :mrgreen:

I have to agree with Jeff on this one; it's neither fish nor fowl. If you want a Gretsch, get one. If you want a Telecaster get one. I have a sneaking suspicion this guitar would sound a lot like a Duojet.

There are several good soundbytes of this combination around.

Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm

Good find, Peter! I've loved them all :wink:

This antipodean has a nice video with the pick-ups as well:
