The paisley/floral Thinlines are interesting and the relicing looks remarkably accurate for a change
Phhhhhwwwwwwoaaaaar.
Although I like Thinlines and I like Paisley Teles, I think the white scratchplates spoil the look a bit. I'm not sure what they should've done instead, obviously there's too much routing to cover with the normal part-painted clear scratchplates.
Edit: Thinking about it, I guess the scratchplates should be white pearl, although it might clash with the paisley in an alarming fashion.
All very nice though.
Fender smashing it to be fair.
I don't mind it tbh, a pick and mix of features from over the decades.
That Pink Paisley has got 'Waz 50th Guitar Present' written all over it...
It hurts my bank balance so much.
I want that paisley Tele.
The Paisley and Blue Flower are particularly cool
