The Thin Line In The Sand
https://www.guitarplayer.com/gear/fende ... per-deluxe
So this has arrived and I am a fan of Thinlines, one day a '72 reissue will be mine, oh yes. But this looks cool, although it needs a maple board in my opinion, and a Lake Placid Blue colour scheme.
The big question, hot or not?
Should Fender leave Gretsch to Gretsch, cue outraged posting ala PRS Silver Sky...or it is a welcome addition to the Cabronita line, ready for a chunky caliper?

It's a rebranded Cabronita, right?

That, of course, significantly improves anything.Terexgeek wrote:... a Lake Placid Blue colour scheme.
But I fear Fender are doing a Gibson trick here, with all these odd, thrown-together models.

Hot. YMMV
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

Re: The Thin Line In The Sand
Nope
Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...
