My $0.21 Esquire

I've posted this on the TDPRI, but heck, why not here, too? I've got two Classic 50's teles, and one was just hanging around getting bored, so this morning I turned it into an Esquire. I already had the pickguard and caps, and only needed a resistor -- 5 for $1.05 at Radio Shack. So, for $0.21, I now have a "new" guitar.

Let's see the decal on the headstock... bet it isn't all that new.

Sorry, just messing with you. Looks very cool. I like Esquires.

Yeah, I'm digging the heck out of this one. I have a stealth Esquire modded from a Squire Affinity, but this one's a real Esquire. Twangy as an old bed spring!
