LOL, looked at the Facebook thread...

Can you ask Wil what kind of Telecaster is up for grabs on the merch page on Pledge? Fender standard USA?

Yes it is the kind of Telecaster that is not a Telecaster. If you squint your eyes, it becomes a Telecaster.

Only the truly gullible or retarded would surely be duped by this ...any takers!!!lol lol really funny thread ...

since the Pledge page doesn't note the brand and doesn't show the headstock either, it just shows the characteristic looking Tele body, that and the price certainly imply that it's a Fender Tele doesn't it?

Oh and it says that none are available, so someone bought it.

I know ! I was not aimed at you at all. Everybody can google it. And about this guitar, it says "for beginner", and yes, around 199£ and even less here and there.
Shame about this rip-off ! :eek:

Golly. That's over twice the price of a proper Fender American Standard Telecaster that the Chinese Farida copies.
