"Have mercy" is all I got to say.

Yeah that’s awesome!! Some slight flame on that massive neck too. I’ve said it a million times but you really can’t go wrong with any of the fenders from this series.

See what I meant in my earlier post about the grain. The finish is already starting to sink into to grain, gives it that vintage vibe as the actual vintage ones did the same.

My 2001 tele is doing the same. Same finish as yours

Stunning! So nice looking, bet it's a sweet player too.

Got one too, did you get the original strap that came with it?

It didn't. The seller gave me a vintage black strap as a replacement.
