Hi newb...welcome to the forum. I'm not the one to answer, but is that a Fender? Do you have a link to the Ebay posting?

Welcome.  We are a very specific crew here and need specific details, make, model, country of origin etc...  Browse your major retailers, musiciansfriend, guitar centre, american musical etc... and find the one you are looking for.  Better yet, go play some and see how you like them.

If you want to post a "wanted to buy", you have to go to the classified area and post accordingly, with details.

Good luck.

Actually, while (like you said) he did post in the wrong section, he was VERY specific with the model. Fender made a thinline Tele in the '90s called (wait for it...) the '90s Telecaster Thinline.

Here's a support document for it, complete with the model number.

Theres a Squire Thinline on The Minneapolis Craigslist $250.

Cuz that's the same thing...

It's close enough and he would be able to see if he likes it. Lets face it they are just 2 pieces of wood bolted together by 4 Bolts.

Really? So, why not just link him to a NJ Series BC Rich Warlock? After all, it's just two pieces of wood bolted together with four bolts.

The '90s Tele Thinline was basically an American Standard Tele but the body was Ash, semi-hollow with an F-hole, it had binding, and had a thinline pickguard. Big key was that it had the American Standard bridge and pickups plus the binding, which is uncommon for thinline Teles, as most of them have ashtray bridges and no binding.

I have this guitar. Have a HB in the neck position. The Delta system is BS, I disabled it. Had a Harmonic Design on both positions, now only in the bridge.

These American Special Edition models were close to the Custom Shop quality, all are great: Tele-Sonic, Jimi Hendrix model and these Thinlines (with maple or rosewood neck).

They pop up on eBay from time to time. Also you could make a Google image search and you'll find the secondhand offers from the different shops, mainly in the US.
