When You Don't Want a Tele

Post by Slowy »

And do you want to part with it?

I have an Esquire style that I want to use more but right now, the Baja's got it covered.

Yeah, wondered about those. I've twice put them in Strats only to sell the guitar soon after.

I had these in a Tele and liked it
