Ummm no. Give me a made in America Thinline Tele with TV Jones pickups and a Bigsby and I would have a hard time passing that up. This thing is not for me even at half this price.

Had one in mint Green with cream bound body and neck. Also had a Bigsby. Was a Stunning guitar, played and sounded sublime!
Sold it to fund a Hahn 910 with TV Jones. Absolutely Love it.... But do miss the Thinline
I've played a few of these and I have to say it's a great guitar. I already have an American Professional Jazzmaster, but I can say this guitar doesn't sound exactly like a JM, and it definitely doesn't sound like a Telecaster. It's this weird mix and I got to A/B/C this thing, a JM, and a tele all at the same time (thankfully the guy in the guitar was also curious so he was down to have me tinkering for about an hour).
The neck is a great JM neck, and the body is pure Telecaster. It was actually really fun having the JM trem instead of a bigsby trem on a Tele body and it actually worked.
If I didn't already have a JM and just buy a Tele, I'd get this. It's a seriously good guitar
If you don't have a Jazzmaster and want one, this guitar will fill that GAS void. I'm trying to justify buying this but I bought 2 guitars in the last month so it's had to make the plunge.

Just not in the position to buy right now.
I totally agree. If this thing had a maple fretboard I'd be gassing big time.
Agreed. (As I sit with my custom shop teles and strats lol)

Looks weird
Still a lot of money.
EDIT: weird how it doesn't mention Parallel Universe. It is one though. See far right on image 1: https://www.gak.co.uk/blog/fender...-universe/
