I'm very happy for you! This was a fantastic deal and every guitarist should experience at least a season with a Telecaster.

I actually purchased the Stratocaster from Adorama on a sale last year and I didn't get as good of a bargain.

Congratulations!
I'm stoked, looking forward to playing around with it.
I cashed in 55,000 airline/credit card miles for $550 so it was kinda free... Now I need to find a case for it.

That is a beautiful guitar

She’s better than I’d hoped for. Having three Strats, this is the only one I play.
The neck is semi-slim and the jumbo frets are a bonus. Grease bucket pull switch to engage the neck in any position. The bridge pickup can get really raunchy sounding! And the large 70’s headstock, well I just dig it. 🤘🏻 🎸

(I gotta get to selling those other two!)

Deep Six is still on sale at the above price as of Wednesday.
I surrendered to GAS and ordered one this morning…
give it some time when you get it, some may love it as a fast n squish compressor but I use it on my big (pedaltrain grande) almost at the end of my signal chain, only as a limiter and even then have the mix control mostly dry w a tiny bit of top end added. This way the entire signal chain gets a tiny ceiling to it so there is more headroom going into the Strymon Iridium. (big board only,no compression on my roots rock board period :)

Scored this Squier Classic Vibe 60's Thinline Tele at Pro Audio Star for $219.99.

I really like it a lot, although it did arrive with one wonky tuner.. (The G machine head is pretty wobbly..) I may swap out the stock tuners if I can't rectify that. I thought about sending it back for an exchange, but it sounds so surprisingly good that I'm hesitant to do that..

The pickups sound much better than I thought they would.. Great neck. Smooth fret ends.

6 lbs 5 oz.
