  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Any telecaster pickers?

As far as I know, the tele is one of the main electric guitars used in country music. So I thought I would reach out to yall and see if we have any country guys or gals who love telecasters here.

I have wanted one for a long time and just ordered one this evening, so I'm pretty excited!

Cool. I've had my tele for a few weeks now... I really like it. It's a sunburst thinline with an alder body and maple neck. Really rich and bright sound.

I've always wanted a sunburst.

The one with the B Bender is a custom job by a guy named Jimmy Valiant out of Nashville. It was orginally made for Ray Flacke, who was Ricky Skaggs' guitarist for a number of years.

telecaster, the eternal guitar, along with strat and the paula.

when i was 15 i saw the bruce springsteen live album where he has that wooden telecaster alung around his shoulder and thought WOW ! never owned a telecaster though, but have a stratocaster now. fender are the best guitars, keep the tuning and have great resale value.

I'm a little late but I have a couple of MIM's that I changed the electronics. I am just now using one on the worship team. I am the tempary leader this month and I'm using another volunteer on acoustic. I get coments like "love that twang you've added". I push it through a Fender Pro Junior. I like the way it's working out for me. Tele's are awesome.
