Phil O'Keefe Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 It's Tuesday. Well, not quite, but I live on the left coast and it's late Monday night, so it's Tuesday for the majority of you already, even if it isn't quite Tuesday here yet. Anyway, I don't recall who came up with this tradition first, but I saw it on Facebook a while back and thought I'd start a thread about it here. So... show us your Telecasters! Here's mine...

Members onelife Posted April 14, 2015 Members Share Posted April 14, 2015 The cat's name is "Tele" - full name is "Butterscotch Blonde Telecatster." His brother "Strat" (full name "Black Strat Cat") is downstairs sleeping by the fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Freeman Keller Posted April 15, 2015 Members Share Posted April 15, 2015 Every week. I'd love to see it whenever you have it ready Freeman. This one has a very cool story with it. I'll do some sort of little announcement. Probably 2 or 3 weeks...... This is totally OT but one of my hobbies is back country skiing and I do a style of skiing called "telemark" (its based on an old Nordic term and is the stance that a ski jumper uses when they land). Anyway, once a week a group of us hikes up the local mountain after work, skis down and goes to the local pub for dinner. We call it Tele Tuesday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil O'Keefe Posted April 16, 2015 Author Share Posted April 16, 2015 If this is true then a Strat = a Lady with ? Lady with a classic profile? And Ratae, I get it - the Tele isn't for everyone, but it's a classic, just like the Strat and the Les Paul are. I couldn't imagine not having one of each...

YMMV It's no good trying to avoid it with a reasonable answer, Knotty's reprogrammed me:) Having built/assembled a shed load of them I have scientific proof that they are in fact full of accordion DNA, I also happen to have assembled the best Tele in the world, ever!!!!!

Members Steve2112 Posted April 17, 2015 Members Share Posted April 17, 2015 I went a LONG time with no tele. Almost a snub. But I got a decent deal on the GC MIM FSR Copperburst, and thought what the hey. I noticed some of my favorite players using them- like Alex Lifeson. Many players "behind the scenes" like in the studio- you'd never know! Plugged into a JVM getting EVH tones? WTF? Can't imagine not having one now.
