Why did you sell the telecaster?The tele was a beautiful instrument. It was one of the reissue models, with the early style bridge (three adjustable bridge pieces instead of 6). The finish was metalic blue with a stylized pink and silver floral pattern, rather like those flowers people stuck in the bottoms of the bathtubs in the 70s.

I sold it to pay down credit card bills when I got married.
I've still got the vintage Silvertone tube amp I used to play it with. New tubes too.
I've started thinking recently of buying a steel string electric/acoustic along the lines of Ovation. I've got a cheap classical guitar, but now that I've started playing fiddle, my ears are better, and I can tell how poor the intonation is on it. It's OK in open position, but it's out of tune by the 5th fret (which makes tuning a pita).
