A good axe that is your pride and joy is on of those real treasures in life. I got sick of playing a piece of junk so a couple of years ago I picked up on of these...

The '72 Telecaster Deluxe. I am in love with it.

Why this guitar?

I wanted a Fender for the funk sound (ala Prince) and a Tele for twang sound (ala Phoenix) but still some power to rock out (ala your Mum). This quitar gives the best of both worlds. The twim Humbuckers enable a strong rock sound but it is versatile enough to play some really sweet stuff. Also, twim humbuckers are a very 'noise cancelling' set-up. Good for recording!

The Strat neck also makes the '72 unique. Its sexy.

I myself Don't own a guitar - my dad does though:
A fender Acoustic
An Ovation Acoustic
A Epiphone Les Paul Custom (he sold his gibson - and he likes tis one better)
An original '77 Fender Strat that used to be his brothers.

I've got a 60's Fender F-15 acoustic and a classic Fender Squire Strat..

I'm getting a 5-string Fender Jazz Bass next though!
