    Anyone know much about this guitar?

    http://www.thomann.de/ie/fender_john_v_j5_3hb_tele_deluxe.htm

    I have a 72 thinline tele and jaguar (as well as a highway one strat) so I'm not sure if I've any real need for it tbh. But it's a bloody lovely guitar! Would nearly consider parting with the thinline for it if it were worth it!

    I have a regular Tele Deluxe. They sound great! This one is a kinda hotrodded version with the strat trem (which came on the original Deluxe for a year or two) and an extra pickup.

    It doesnt really sound like a tele or a strat. Almost verging towards Les Paul territory. :)

    Thats one of the main reasons I'm looking at it. Used the Highway Strat and thinline for a while, but wanted something heavier & meatier, which is why I went with the Jaguar. Just not sure if I'd be doubling up with the Jag and this.

    Nah, Jags have their own sound too. You can never have too many guitars! :D

    True! Try telling that to the missus though!!! :D

    Yeah the Jag didn't have the thump I thought it would have. I love it, but its still middle of the road in terms of power. I'm looking at this for the days when you just want to hammer out big loud power chords! :cool:

    You'll just have to buy her a present to divert her attention away from the new guitar. :)
