Been eyeing one of these since they were released, and at this price it's an instant buy for me. Thanks!

I got the Red, non Bigsby version of this guitar. I can't tell you how many complements I get on the tone. These are real instruments.

these are les paul likes that I actually find more attractive than les pauls, interestingly the bigsby that is completed surrounded by guitar paint (this version) is more attractive than a lot of the bigsbys that screw all the way in at the bottom of the guitar (guitar strap mount point, I think all of the made in japan highest end Gretsch Duo Tones). However on this guitar body I think pretty much all bigsbys look great (there are some ugly bigsby guitars out there, if you look at the telecaster bigsby models you'll know what I mean)

This is *reallllly* hard to pass up at this price. The B50 Bigsby on it is like $140~ retail which is more than 50% of the cost of this guitar lol. It would be a mistake not to purchase hahahahha


FYI I pricematched it at MF (had to call my rep because they refused to over chat) and just got it. 8% back in MF rewards hahahaha.

I'm a beginner and been looking at a classic Vibe telecaster, how would this compare in terms of quality and ability to play various styles? Again for just a beginner starting out. Thanks guys

You can't go wrong. You're between two very good instruments. I prefer the P90s over the tele pickups, but there are a million people who prefer the tele. Both will be very versatile.
