      I've got a midnight blue (purple-ish) telecaster with a sparkle in the finish. It's AMAZING!
      I have my favourite guitarists like Frusciante and JM. But Pete, you inspire me to pick up the guitar more than anyone! Love this video and you really were meant to have this guitar, it's a brilliant story. Love you Pete, Andertons videos are 100 times better with you on board the team and we are blessed to see you play/test all these guitars and gear. Thank you so much for being amazing and inspiring me and so many others to play and try be the best player I can be. And for all the little tips you give us all along the way.
      Thanks man!

      Well, everything Pete plays sounds great...I could hand Pete a guitar that I think is rubbish because I can't get a decent drop D riff out of it...and he would casually and effortlessly knock Papa Roachs' "Last Resort" out of the park 😎...that's just Pete.

    I started playing guitar around 5 months ago, and had my heart set on a purple Schecter for my first electric. My friend who inspired me to pick up the guitar in the first place told me no - don’t spend so much on your first guitar, so together we looked at what was available. Purple and orange have always been my colours, so I knew the guitar had to be purple, that was my only requirement. We found the purple 60’s vibes squires you guys had, and as soon as I saw it, I fell in love. Since getting it, I’ve had the pickguard swapped out for a psychadelic purple/orange custom one, and even though it’s my first guitar, I hear what you’re saying about having a guitar that you connect with. It feels like it could only be my guitar, and because of that I’m inspired every day to pick it up and play it. So, thankyou, Pete, for being the reason why I have my perfect purple guitar - even though I have notoriously bad GAS, I haven’t had any inclination to get anything else, how can you improve on perfection?

Thanks Andersons for making this wonderful unique spec available!

    Telecasters can be so underrated, there's something special about a great Tele the way it will ring when played acoustically, the feel of the neck and just a pure slab of ash which will absorb and spread out those vibes evenly and rounded. Even Les Paul diehards if you play enough Tele's you will find one that will be hard to walk away from then you will know! Great video as always. 😊

    When the video announcing the arrival of the Classic Vibe Purple Teles came out, I felt obliged to do a 'What, no lefties' comment (it's at the top of the comments) Imagine my surprise when I had a reply!!!! 😳 Even more that you'd ordered a stack of lefties. I preordered (then cancelled when they were late, but knew I'd end up getting one, if only to support Andertons for doing something for lefties) It came yesterday, very cool, good weight, very pleased. (My wife thinks it's hideous 🤣) Every time I look it I'm reminded of this story! Awesome to see your enthusiasm and joy with it Pete. Kudos.

    Lee and Pete sre the heart and sole of Andertons.
    My 2003 blond Telecaster Affinity is my soul in music. Over 200 recordings so far.
    I wore out the frets twice. Picked up a Fender licenced Might Mite tele neck. Exactly the same neck and frets. I'll need a re-fret soon.
    I looked at 3 Fenders that day in 2003. They just could not match the Squire for bold Tele sound.
    My other 50+ guitars are terrific, but this tele just speaks.
    Thanks for the love story. And thank Lee for all of us! 🧡

I'm having a flamed roasted maple neck with ebony board built for it, swapping out the hardware for Nickel and have bought a set of your Montys pickups from Andertons to go in it.

    I had a same experience with a partscaster strat i bought at my local second hand music shop (where I work as a setup guy/luthier now) a VERY worn reliced fiesta red strat with a custom shop v neck and texas special pickups in it. Bought it for about 450 euros. I was pretty broke at the time so I borrowed the money from my mom who knew i really had to get it, and so i did. It plays most other guitars out of the water, it's got such a charm and feel about it... Plus it has a Fender branded bottle opener on it! I've been playing it for years.

    No doubt it's a great guitar but I feel like a large amount of the magic is that it's being played by a professional guitarist through really expensive pedals into really high end amps turned up louder than most of us are able to play in a non-band situation

      I’m pretty sure if I had a chance to play Pete’s guitar, I would sound as crappy as ever :)

      He’s used this guitar to demo countless budget level items of gear, digital modelling through a sound desk etc. it always sounds great. Gear be damned, it’s 100% the player. Tone is in the fingers.

    Very Special review. After following you for several Years it’s amazing the impact. I’m back east and was out for a jog
    Passed a house with several doors and shutters that were purple. The first thing that came to mind was your reviews with the Captain about the purple Telecaster! …. I now have both the Mexican purple Telecaster and Strat ….thanks:)!

    I wanted a purple Tele from the moment I saw yours. Lucky for me, I managed to buy one of the Road Worn models a month or so ago. And it's epic.

    The purple tele is just so versatile. The twisted tele neck pickup is amazing. I have the DP51s in a tele, and they are such a great set. Makes the tele a do everything guitar.

    Session guy Michael Thompson loves purple, too. Every year his wife would buy him a new purple guitar (I think for Christmas) and it was always exciting to see what he got. He even drove a purple BMW! Congratulations on getting your guitar. Great story!

    Very fun story! I just received my purple Bass VI from y'all -- it is really fun to hear this background on the color. Soon as I opened the box, my wife named is "Nelson," after Prince Rogers Nelson. Yeah, we are Prince household! Thanks for all you do!
