Best telecaster color ever?

Post by JJLipton »

Everyone seems to go for the butterscotch blonde 52 style, but theres alot of other cool colors out there for teles. I think its about time for me to start saving up for a proper tele.

I own: Black, White, Blue.

Butterscotch/natural is just boring to me. It's like playing a coffee table.

Hmm, I shouldve added more specific options here. Are we talking vintage white with black pickguard and rosewood fretboard? I'm a pretty big fan of teles in all colors except sunburst and that ugly A word.

I cant fucking stand natural finish guitars.

I voted white, but it'sk ind of a toss up between white, black, with the 60's pastel blues/seafoams coming in a close second.

Depends. If it's the Deluxe/Custom style Tele, it's gotta be Natural. Otherwise, Lake Placid Blue or Sherwood Green.

Being in love, I've found, is a lot like working at a factory - eventually, you get replaced by either a foreigner or a machine...
