Which guitar should I get?
Hey, so I’m really stuck between these two guitars:

or
http://www.guitarcenter.com/Fender-Standard-Telecaster-Electric-Guitar-105156830-i1432037.gc?sort=2
I play punk, rock, alternative, pop, punk pop, country, etc.
I’m really stuck between these two.
I actually play a Fender now. It works perfect for me.Hello there,
There really is not much difference between these guitars. They have the same pickups. The necks have the same profile and fretboard radius. Just different color finishes and different colored pickguards. The guitars will play the same. That means it is the cosmetics that are the factor and that is a personal choice. Whether you prefer the blonde one or not is something no one else can help you with.
Later,
Hello there,
I apologize, there is a difference. I must be braid dead. The blonde one has an ash body. I am guessing the other one is alder, but it does not say. Yes, a significant difference.
Ash is a little heavier than alder. I like the sound. Has a vintage ring to it. Hard to explain what I mean. Ash bodies sound more like the Fenders from the late 50s and early 60s. I am prefer ash bodies. However, folks were were not playing in the 50s and 60s are pretty much used to the sound of the alder bodies that have been used since maybe the 70s. That means if you want the sound of the bodies made currently, you should go eith the alder body. If you want a more vintage sound, go with the swamp ash. The difference is subtle. It is not blatant. But there is a difference. Also the weight may be a factor. If you do not like heavier bodies, go with the alder. If you do not mind the heavier bodies, go with the swamp ash.
Man, I don’t know how I missed that. I luve swamp ash bodies. Both have a maple fretboard which I think is best for a Tele. Maple gives a brighter sound than rosewood.
Even after noticing the difference, it is still got to be a personal choice. However, the choice is more than cosmetics. The body wood difference is going to make a slightly different sound. Swamp ash bodies and maple fretboards sound great together. If I were deciding how to spend your money I’d go with the swamp ash body.
