    Its clever the marketing on these things, ad upgrades one year take them away, re ad the upgrades a couple of years later and then take them away again.
    I can't blame them, how many times can you re invent something so simple and already pretty perfect.
    It sounded so unconvincing when he said "I've played the old version today and there is actually some differences" 😂
    I'm not for a second saying its a bad guitar, it sound awesome but I'm sure this and the last 10 years of releases are all great and pretty much the same 😅

    I have this guitar, I found the neck pickup to be really muddy and mushy. That's something I've never experienced with a Tele before. Also the bridge seems really overwound. Not a fan.
    But the rest of the guitar is really nice, and well made.
