I like the roughness - the tough as look - the "I don't care" attitude it imparts.....the "I'm the Rocker of my generation"

And then we have the compensated saddles....just to bring a bit of yuppie back into!

Love that colour of yours Molly, what's the official name of it?
Denche Blue :-)

To be honest, I'm not sure. Google says Daphne Blue so I'll go with that. :thumbup:

Honestly your tele is so stunning I didn't even notice the photos were taken at your Nan's house! ;)

More info on the tele & amp please? (or link to thread if it has been discussed)

So, Tele guys - how do you feel about 6 saddle vs 3 saddle? I'm already thinking of swapping in a Gotoh 6 saddle bridge, purely from an ergonomics point of view, the old school 3 barrel just feels a bit shit under my right hand for palm muting.
