    Which models of Fender amps do you use?

    A friend wanting to get back to playing after a long absence asked me to take him guitar shopping early last year and we kicked the tires on every humbuckered guitar under $800 in the local GC. I played for him, he played for me. I pointed out nuances, he pulled out his wallet. After much back and forth and many A-B comparisons we both agreed that (that day) the Tele Deluxe was the best feeling/sounding one of the bunch. He and it have lived happily ever after. YMMV.

    I didn't try out the Deluxe but I sure did have a hankering for one of the reissue '72 thinlines that are the same price and were MIM's. Sweet, sweet axes - although IMHO the WRH (wide-range-humbuckers) look like - but don't sound like - the original ones.

    Anyway, they're pretty dang nice, and a great value in the under-800 price range...I ended up with a Classic Player Jazzmaster but that's just because I already had 2 Teles...
