LTD: TE-202

Davis GMC had given me a positive reply to my request in bringing the LTD TE-202 models here- so here's a thank you in advance from me! There are too many Strat-alike guitars out there, we Tele fans should not be forgotten. I plan to acquire the BLK model & have the neck humbucker removed- I prefer a single coil in there. So more non-Ibanez distractions for me this year...

haha dude those look good man :)
always had a thing for reliced guitars, but i found their strat one to be too 'manufactured' if u know what i mean... doesn't look natural at all.

still trying to find a HH tele(copy) out there haha. hard to find those, other than the obvious fender/squier offerings :(

The relic treatment on this one is as superficial - it's all about costs :-)

Sub, are you a tele-fan?

Hard to tell from your guitar collection.

Hey sub, just curious how much did it cost total? :)

I'm a tele fan but the teles out there aren't as appealing as i'd like them to be. But more importantly, i'm a guitar fan, he he...

This guitar is not here yet so I can't address avaiability & price queries. If it is of the same standing as the ST-202, expect a sub-$400 price tag :-)

Looks like a solid piece. Something to pair up with your ESP LTD GL-256 :)

...which i don't own :-) i'm not into signatures... he he. i own the ST-202 instead.

Geez..i thought all this while you have the GL-256! I believe yours is the ST-203, yes?

yes, sir! 203 instead of 202. i'd wanna check out the LTD Kamikaze once it's here. he he...

Ahh..talking about Kamikaze, i still regret not getting it at Raymond's Music in Specialist Shopping Centre back in the late 80's as i see it as too "pro" for me :)

bro... nostalgia. i was there shopping for my first electric guitar but ended up @ swee lee (Plaza S'pura) & bought an Ibanez RG instead. i agree with you- ESP guitars exude this certain 'class' feel & you won't go near them unless you know you are a capable player. but of course, we now know that's not the case.

I bought my first electric at Raymond...a Rockson strat copy back in 1988 \m/

Your first electric would be your blue "Kotzen" RG right? :)

that's right- my first darling's my RG560 but it wasn't meant to be that colourful with reference to some guitarist personal intent, he he :-)
