My next guitar-->coming(my first kind of TELE/Benford)

[thunder100]

Dear All

 

After a bigger quest and some(MUCH ) help by the community I have made up my mind for my next guitar

 

I need a neck humbucker guitar for some songs,thought about

 

EPI Dot-->very nice but a bit heavy and I could not get familar with the neck

 

Charvel SoCAl 2H-->I was too late-->all the tangerine orange I wanted were gone-->and many friends said "try something else leave the Statocaster ghetto

(although I love to be there)even Mark Knopfler plays a LP these days(I am far away from MK)"

 

A Partsocaster by ebay parts turned into a real mass/nightmare(I bought many guitars at ebay-->100% positive experience-->till the parts idea-->70% negative experience)

 

After this I was thinking about a Tele as (It seems) due to my whole music life Strats I could play immediately with the ones I tried

 

-->ebay-->used-->AVRI-->ASAT nothing except an 2500 bucks ASAT turned me on

 

Then I saw this thread

Then went there

 

http://www.benfordguitars.com/

 

Were a bit in love with this

 

 

Then after some discussion with Steve he wrote this:

 

As much as I would like for you to buy a guitar I have in stock, I ultimately want you to have the guitar you REALLY want. So if that means building something else for you, thats ok!*

 

Now this(after shippment to Europe) will be mine

Glad I could point you in the right direction!!

You'll definitely cherish your Benford. It is truly something special.

Steve is a true class act. He goes WAAAAY above and beyond where most builders would go. You will not find better service than Steve Benford.
