Sorted. WTB Brad Paisley Telecaster/ Esquire

Ayns

Nice. 

I like the pink Tele as well.  I remember when you could pick them up a few years back for a reasonable price.

Whose is the autograph?

Ill guess Marty Stuart.

off the back of this thread mine arrived this afternoon ... really like the neck shape , very similar to the CS 59 Tele I just sold with a "John English " pattern neck .

For anyone else whose interest this may have piqued, PMT have added a used Paisley Tele to their site, although I'm not sure how competitive the price is in the current climate - https://www.pmtonline.co.uk/pre-loved-fender-brad-paisley-telecaster-road-worn-silver-sparkle

I think that's what you have to pay ...........so you may as well buy new
they are incredibe guitars
I don't have the esquire .........if it has the same neck exactly as the tele it will be magic 
I prefer the black of the esquire but the neck pickup on the tele is just perfect and I don't think the stealth one on the Esq is as good .

Fully agree with @Dominic ;;
I have the Esquire and the neck pickup is a whole different thing (which isn’t necessarily a bad thing). It does however, give a very nice in between sound. The Twisted Tele pickup in the silver tele is my favourite neck pickup, but I have this in another guitar. I also have a spare in my parts bin should I ever decide to change the neck pickup on the Esquire.
I’ll also add that the BP bridge pickup is my personal favourite too and that includes CS Nocaster, Broadcaster, 52ri and many others.

Thanks StefB,

If only I’d waited another day :-) 

I know a couple of guys at the local PMT, so I could maybe have gotten a “good deal” on that one.
