Sell your soul at the crossroads Eugene this is the one. Vintage kluson style tuners. 3 brass saddles great pickups that cover rockabilly, blues, surf, rock, and yes even metal. Just doesn't look metal. This is as close to a 1970s Tele you can get. The pro has the wrong modern tuners. The Utral is too modern. This is as vintage as it gets and new. Oh and the neck is like butter. No stupid little vintage frets. Rolled edges plays like a dream. Wish it had a nitro finish but everything else is perfect.
