Hey,
i was wondering if anyone could give me some advice on my next guitar.
I've narrowed the selection down to 3 guitars:
- Squier Vintage Modified Telecaster HS
- Fender MIM Telecaster
- Fender MIM Stratocaster
I generally plays blues and rock, if that helps.
Thanks
Wista..
I've learnt loads thanks to Guitar Tricks!! :D

Although I really dig the sound of my parts-caster Telecaster, I'd say the Strat would give you most versatility.
...so ever since then, I always hang on to the buckle.

I personally like the Squier tele... I think it has great blues potential.

All of those guitars are very similar... I think identical necks for instance. I'm pretty sure you can get the Strat in either maple or rosewood neck.

If you already have a Strat, I'd get the tele... or vice-versa.
I play a cheap electric guitar.

Strat. Preference to a rosewood fingerboard.

I just layed away a squire modified vintage stratocaster,I think you should try one before buying something more expensive. It seems like an awesome guitar for the money. :cool:

Always capitalize "BLUES"
