Try a Mexican Classic Series as well. Apart from the nitro finish, it has quite similar specs, and might be very similar for a lot less money.
Having said that, there is something about a nitro finish...

Some of us like 7.25"
@MattFGBI do you know if there will eventually be a wider range of colours on the American Originals? I'm looking more at the Tele, and I'm not sure at this point whether I want a 50s or 60s. The problem I have is that the 50s is only available in the blonde blackguard look. While it's a classic look, blackguards are absolutely everywhere. Even if they don't want to go too outrageous with the colours, please can you pass on the message that it would be nice in some other classic colours like black or sunburst.
Got a classic player 60's which is great but I would prefer I nitro finish.
The pickups sounded great to me, no complaints there. Fit and finish was spot on as you would expect and the finish was nice with some nice grain showing through..it looked like a 1 piece body as far as I could see.
They are meant to be tougher with the poly undercoat.
Also worth noting that some of the vintage custom colours were acrylic, sometimes covered with a nitro top coat, sometimes not. So that's why some of the old white fenders have yellowed whereas other have not.
