Nice! I must get myself a tele, they seem to be all the rage these days! Happy NGD!

Rule No. 1 - If it sounds good - it is good!

Re: Happy NGD to me :)

Congrats Roger!  Caution!..... collecting guitars can be addictive.  Russell's got his Strats, and now you are on your way towards Teles. Usually it starts with just one or two as an "experiment"....... and then you have a whole wall devoted to hanging them.  Then you work to keep them happy and provide strings, pick-up upgrades, perhaps a little polish or a new coat of paint, pedals and such fancy doo-dads.  Then one day you discover that all your free time is spent tuning or dusting and caring for these "tenants" that don't say much but have demands  that must be met.  Once in awhile you'll drag home another, just so the ones you already have don't get lonely while you are "slaving away" to keep them warm and a roof over their heads. 

Be Strong my Friend!  It's a just a "phase"........... Maybe. wink

Re: Happy NGD to me :)

Black Tele, eh.  Time for some country blues riffs, I think.  Look up some Brad Paisely videos and stand back.   After Chordiestock III, this one may be appropriate: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q3zkkLckeyM

The wicked licks come at the end of the song. 

Happy NGD.

Woo-hoo! Happy NGD to Roger! I saw Brad Paisley doing his thing on TV last year and the host said, "Son, you are one fine tele-picker!"

Re: Happy NGD to me :)

Happy new guitar day and we want too hear you singing some country like Brad  Paisley.

my papy said son your going too drive me too drinking if you dont stop driving that   Hot  Rod  Lincoln!! Cmdr cody and his lost planet airman

Re: Happy NGD to me :)

Doug rest assured I am not getting addicted. I only have 4 electric and 4 acoustic guitars plus a uke, mandolin and violin. So I am well with normal tolerances. lol

Looks like I am going to have to learn some Brad Paisley and definitely his 'Alcohol' song for Chordiefest IV.

Happy NGD!!!

Art and beauty are in the eyes of the beholder.
What constitutes excellent music is in the ears of the listener.

Re: Happy NGD to me :)

Albert Collins - The Master of the Telecaster - is also a good role model.

Re: Happy NGD to me :)

Oh! My! Goodness!

What a pretty Tele, Roger!!!

I agree with Zurf: She looks like she's made to play the blues!

Grats, my friend and I'd love to hear you make her moan! wink
