Hi all!  Well, having turned into a Tele fanatic, I've really wanted a Fender Custom Shop Tele.  One popped up on Reverb, and the seller needed to raise cash quickly for something, so I was able to purchase this!  It's a 2015 Custom Shop '63 Journeyman Relic in "faded candy tangerine."  I'm not too high on relics, but this is very lightly relic'd.  I did a quick recording this morning, the first one being with my '52 RI Tele and then the new CS Tele.  This one has a little bit of that Tele twang in it, whereas the first one has a little more warmer tone.  Okay, no more purchases for a while, unless I sell a few Gibby's or something.

Nice guitar @CapM.  Really cool tone.  It takes a good ear (or at least a good speaker) to hear the difference between them, but the CS sounds a little poppier to me.

Very cool new guitar Cap.  You and I were shopping at the same time and comparing notes.  I'm really glad you got yours home as well.  I'm running out the door right now so will also listen when I get home.

Congratulations!

She's a beaut! Glad you decided to pick it up. I have a Roadworn Fender Strat that I bought a few years ago to take with me when I go out of town. If it gets more dings in it, I don't mind. The truth is, almost all of my guitars have some wear and tear now. Like a new car, the first ding is the most painful , from then it is not a big deal to me anymore. Kind of matches my physical aging.....:)

Play it with joyfulness.

Cool score CapM.

I share your conflict with the relic-ing thing.

I don't really dig it, but at the same time love a vintage vibe, so a light relic job often stokes the GAS fires for me.

Love the Tele Tone- just enough twang!

Sweet CapM. The vibe can't beat on telecaster tone. Nice looking ax for sure. Congratulations.
