It's a Fender FSR Telecaster with Copperburst finish. It comes with a vintage bridge with 3 brass saddles and a flipped control plate(for easy volume swells). They are on sale for $399 at GC.

Cool. Nothing says Tele like thru-body stringing and three brass saddles.

Thanks guys! yesterday I found a Mustang I at a local pawn shop for $50. It's just a little practice amp but it sounds good in my bedroom and its a good match with my tele.

Thanks! 0ne of the local GCs got in a minty '52 reissue made in 2002. It's the best one I seen.Beautiful neck and it only weighs 6.2 lbs! I had to have it so I traded back the Bronzeburst tele.

Thats a nice one ,congrats Mitch!

I had one back in the 90's but never bonded with the neck.
I've been Teleless for 13 years now!
Love those 52's though.

Good choice Mitch, I never was a fan of the flipped over tele control plate. :)

Even better! That's my absolute favorite Tele color combination. Nothing fancy, just a businesslike tone machine. Congrats!
