Well, I've gone a bit "Fender mad" of late and decided I had to revisit the world of Telecasters.
I looked at lots of Mexican models (I'm a big fan of the quality they produce for the price) but in the end the American Standard had exactly the right configuration for me.
In the end I decided to pick up one of the limited edition colours with matched headtstock just to have something different. The painted headstock seems to polarise tastes but I kinda dig it. And the Daphne Blue I think looks great, especially next to a dark rosewood board.
It's a lovely guitar. Very responsive, well-balanced and great to play. The satin finish on the neck is a thing of luxury!

I just got an American Standard myself. but in more traditional 2 tone sunburst. Really digging the tonal difference vs the SG. Ideal for certain songs...
