Title: Impulse NGD (Now with pictures)
Post by: Ted 'N' Leo on October 26, 2008, 02:24:00 PM
So I walked into guitar guitar in Glasgow, not intending to buy anything.

And walked out with a lovely squier vintage vibe telecaster (sorry roo!).

It is a very nice guitar, and amazing for the money. It's also my first ever telecaster, and the only one I've ever tried.

Now with pictures. Also thought i'd use this oppurtunity to show off the blackstar pedal i got last weekend.

Nice one :D

I think Roo ought to be getting some royalties from Fender soon - anyone else noticed he seems to have single-handedly inspired an attack of tele buying recently on this forum :lol:

Yeah I am pretty disappointed. The only way things could get worse here is if everyone starts saying that they like the Beatles.

<shudders>

I'm finding the lead parts to things like "Day Tripper" or "I Feel Fine" just sound so good on a tele. :D

Even better on a Danelectro, but that's another story.

I was watching clips from "Let It Be" on You Tube the other night. It is great when George grooves away on his Rosewood Tele.

I really love those rosewood teles. They used to have one in Guitar Guitar (a reissue). Me and a Beatles loving friend used to go in regularly to salivate at it.

Warmoth showcase had an entirely Rosewood tele body in the same style as those ones, i was very tempted...
