Hey Gents!
I have been away for a while...i guess life got in the way but I am back.
After watching Brad's show tonight on youtube (Budlight seltzer session concert), it looks like hes going to have a second signature fender telecaster. Black sparkle with the same "road worn" wear spots as the silver sparkle. It loooked just like the silver sparkle signature tele of his except black sparkle. I even spotted his paisley cowboy hat decal on the neck. It looked good. I own his silver sparkle and i LOVE it. 5 pounds and super resonant!
What do you guys think of this?

Hey Pat, how's it goin'?
I saw that. I also wouldn't rule out that Brad got bored and re-painted one of his silver sparkle Fenders...himself (or had Bill Crook blast it)!
I own the silver version. It's a fantastic guitar.
If this is a new one coming down the pipe I hope it has the addition of the one thing people have asked for since Day 1....a G-Bender. I know that would make it a lot more expensive but if you had the silver w/o bender and the black with bender that would be neat and give people choices at different price points.
Keith

Hey Keith! Things are going very well. Got a Pat Jr. on the way hahaha he should be here in July. Very exciting stuff. it will be my first kiddo! I do remember seeing Mr. Crook posting this same guitar sparkle combo on his page...but i thought the wear spot was too identical to the fender version and it 100% had a fender neck on it with his cowboy hat logo on it as well. Silly me for assuming it will be his signature guitar but thats what im hopeful for. The main reason i believe it will be his signature guitar is because I remember watching an interview with BP saying hes going to be releasing a SERIES of signature telecasters. I guess Im just drawing my own conclusions...but fingers crossed. There isn't anything BP related gear wise that I dont or havent had...Its becoming expensive haha Hey Pat, how's it goin'?

Keith I know about the pending addition! Congrats, Man! Oh, I'm sure that it is one of his signature guitars. Whether it's one he had Fender mock up as a potential second guitar in the series or something he did on his own (for the same reason, to come up with the next instalment), who knows. In the past I was actually tempted to buy another silver one to sand off and paint shell pink! I hear what you are saying about expensive! I've been wanting to get Bill C to build me another Crook (but with a G Bender). However, other 'must haves' just keep getting in the way...and its expensive! Z Wreck Jr is next. I told my wife yesterday. I wanted to get the eye roll out of the way now!

The thing about guitars with Benders....very few people want them. Now, I love them. But I think they'd be hard to move. The demand wouldn't be there. I'd be interested though.

I told my wife yesterday. I wanted to get the eye roll out of the way now! Im with you on getting a second silver sparkle BP tele. I have some blue and silver paisley paper that needs to find a tele body to be put on...and the BP tele neck will be going on that guitar...maybe i should just use that body as well for the paper? And im also with you on the Z Wreck Jr. I have the original Z Wreck but for what i need it for...its simply too much amp! Thats with the half power switch on it already. that master volume on the Jr. will be a thing of beauty. A week before i heard that the Jr. was coming out, I bought an RxJr...should have waited although the RxJr is an awesome amp as well.

I have a Black and Gold sparkle Crook. That's as close as I'm likely to get. I liked the look of the silver sparkle ones when they first came out and the black sparkle will probably be cool also.

The Doc has one of those Fender Paisley models at the shop. I liked it a lot. A lot of people use 'em. Kenny Vaughn has one and the only part he swapped on it was the pick guard.

I agree...they are an amazing, light weight telecaster! Most people will complain about "Theres no way im spending over 1000 bucks on a mexican made guitar" but i think they are the ones who are missing out...I hope they do release the black sparkle tele we seen the other night!

Me too. If they do I may try to get one bought in the States to have a G-Bender installed and then I’ll ship it back to myself through my work’s FedEx account.

The one BP was playing had a bender on it so maybe if they do a production run hopefully they will at least make a few with benders.

I just wish you could get them without the relic. Or at least without that big scrubbed off spot on the front.

Brad said adding a bender makes it too expensive. maybe unless fender can figure it out...but im guessing it will add 700+ to the price.
