I can honestly say that is the first Blacktop i've liked the look of, surprising what an anodized guard, decent knobs and a different finish can do.

It would actually look better if both pickups had mounting rings, rather than the bridge all on its own.

I hate that flipped plate shit. I'd sooner touch the switch than either knob anyday on a tele.

It's not about avoiding collisions with the switch a la stratocaster, it's about doing teh volume swells, n00b.

The control knobs look so hideously large and wrong on both the Strat and BFG Tele.

Flipped control plate always made way more sense.

I think this is nice.. and The tele is ok, really like the humbucker thing, but probably would just go with the 72' design.

theyre both tasty. maple 'board on the strat would be better tho.

euch, *shudder* the gold pickguard with that finish looks gaudy as all shit.
