Fender Bullet

A Fender Bullet. A budget guitar from the early 80s. A bit different, yes. Made in the USA, yes. Don’t see them everyday, fair enough.

But £2600?

A Fender Bullet will never sell for £2600. Ever. The person listing this has just wasted their money and their time.

Custom Shop Tele Jr

I’ve been quiet for a while, mainly due to there being a lack of particularly interesting guitars to blog about but here’s one that’s definitely worth a mention – a Fender Custom Shop Tele Jr.

Custom Shop guitars tend to hold their value very well, and particularly the more interesting models like this one – well worth a punt at £1200 if you have the cash. I’ve never really understood why Fender don’t do more set necks; it seems like the public don’t really accept a Fender that’s not a bolt on – in the same way that Gibson bolt-ons don’t sell so well. Although Gibson bolt-ons are almost universally crap.

[Full disclosure: I own no Custom Shop guitars but do have a Fender Korea set neck Tele]
