Brad
Fender Telecaster (Blonde)
Baja w/ A1 switching
So this is another story of an impromptu visit to Guitar Village, procrastination, missed opportunities and a happy ending...
Brad is an American Baja S1 switching Blonde Telecaster, apparently 1 of around 250 in the UK. I played this Tele and loved it. Once again I wanted to ponder over the purchase so waited a week to see if I really still wanted this guitar - I did.
I popped into Guitar Village again to see the beauty and part with my hard earned cash but was met with sadness at the news that some swine had already beat me to it.
Disappointed I walked away, once again angry at myself.
Later that week I went to a regular lesson that I taught to find the swine was a student of mine.
'The GIT' I thought, this was MY guitar, I saw it first!
Months later having resigned myself to the fact that I would have to continue my search for another Tele I liked, my student admitted that they just could not get on with the guitar and asked if I wanted to buy it from them?
YES - No procrastination this time and Brad became a regular feature upon my shoulders.

Set up with 10-46 D'Addarios and locking machineheads instead of the default GOTOHs that were originally there. This guitar is brilliant, from Country, Rock, Blues and Jazz, it does them all really well and I do not regret any part of our time together.
