Very nice thinline Teles! 8)

I've had a few thinline Teles off and on over the years and regret letting one or two of them go. :derp:

Here's my current thinline and it's a keeper. I bought this Squier Paranormal Cabronita Telecaster Thinline over the holidays when Pro Audio was having some amazing sales on their Squier guitars.

Image

The stock Squier neck is a wee bit too thin for me so I swapped it out with a 9.5" Radius Fender 51 Style Fat U-Shaped neck and swapped out the stock pickups for a set of Fralin Hum-Cancelling Jazzmaster pickups I had on hand. Plays, sounds, and feels great!

That Squier CV Thinline in daphne blue with a gold anodized pick guard looks amazing!

Thanks, yeah, I had to have it.

I have it tuned to C# standard and have put Wilkinson compensated brass saddles on it. Still running down the setup sweet spot on that config. But it sounds great, the stock pickups on the Classic Vibes are pretty damn good

The red one is fretless? That’s got to be fun. I’ve always wanted to try that, but never got around to it.

In what world is a bound sparkle thinline outclassed by anything?

I love that googly-eyed Duesenberg pickup, too.

I've often wanted a thinline tele, how do they handle feedback.

Fine. Mostly like a normal tele.
If I want to get some going I have to stand on the fuzz and work for it.

Thanks. The split domino pairs well with the starwood in the bridge. The third knob is a high pass for kneck only.

A tad more prone, but much more controllable, in a good way, unlike a regular / larger hollowbody type.
