Heres another tele, this one is only the third one like it I've seen.

If you put it next to the Fender original they are almost twins.

8) This is indeed a real looker but there is a reason why 0 bids. Too much for my wallet. Will be interesting to see if if returns again with a more realistic price range. :huh:

Last time I looked on the fender site they were higher than this. A slim line like this was close to $2000. if I remember right. This is with out a doubt one of the best copies of another brand made by Electra I've seen. It plays very easy and sounds great.

Whoa! Man that one is JUST LIKE the one I remember at that music store I hung out at as a kid! The thing suited me perfectly and the action was spot on! It just didn't seem enough "Rock and Roll" to me at the time! Now that I know who Tab Benoit is, I know better!

I want a thinline in my collection whether it be Fender (MIM probably) or an Electra!

Here's the real thing, a used Fender Thin Line for 1500. I saw a new Fender Thin Line natural finish like this at Sam Ash back in March for 2000.

Here's another,

Did any one here pick up the Electra Thin Line?
