"Stop waffling and buy the thing!"

Feature:
The case is OK--glad to have it, but it would be better with slightly better hardware. The strap left black marks on a white shirt... C'mon, Fender. Spring for some better materials.

Quality:
This thing is beautiful. The sunburst is great, and it has a solid 'quality' feel to it. With better feeling v/t hardware it would be perfect.

Value:
It's a pricey guitar, though the deal at Same Day is $150 less than every other 'discount' retailer. Still, no gripes.

Desirability:
How can you beat a classic Tele? It just looks and feels like a great electric guitar ought to.

Sound:
Better than I thought. I expected good twangy brightness, but I've been pleasantly surprised at how this Tele sounds in overdrive--rich and mean.

Ease of Use:
Took it out of the case and plugged it into a Vox AD50VT, and it sounded great. No adjusting or tinkering.

Support:
No need yet.

Feature:
But, it's simplicity is its greatest strength.

Quality:
Very high quality. Ellegant, precise.

Value:
They're very expensive.

Desirability:
You cannot play rock if you're not going to look like a rocker. This one has that.

Sound:
5 strings, three fingers, a Capo, and you sound like Keith Richards. That's exactly the sound that I look for.

Support:
They're cool.

Overall:
It's forever
