[dire zephyr]

ST-20? Yeah they suck

[dire zephyr]

This one is better than a TL-20

It has great pickups

[dire zephyr]

For a Strat - this is your best bet

And it is in stock on a UK warehouse

[half prawn]

ok cool

thanks mate

[dire zephyr]

It’s a liiiittle bit out of your budget but I think you can find like 10 quid

[half prawn]

i meant like how it feels when playing didnt mean the pickups

yhyh

[dire zephyr]

Should be better than your Strat

[half prawn]

ok cool

[dire zephyr]

But idk I would get an eart

[half prawn]

thanks mate

[dire zephyr]

Steel frets, non vintage tuners, actually decent trem

Yeah, go for eart

[dire zephyr]

They have it in sunburst and red too

[half prawn]

https://www.thomann.co.uk/fender_sq_affinity_tele_mn_bb.htm is this tele worse than the harley benton

[half prawn]

ik im just thinking cos i wanted to get a tele

[dire zephyr]

Probably on the same level

[half prawn]

but if u think its better ill get the eart

k ill just get the eart then

thanks mate

[dire zephyr]

But the HB has better pickups and a roasted neck

[half prawn]

really appreciate u going out of ur way to help me find a guitar

[dire zephyr]

They make great teles too, they are just a bit more pricy

[half prawn]

how much more pricey

[dire zephyr]

https://eartguitar.com/products/eart-guitars-nk-c1n-brown

[half prawn]

cos tbh idk if i can even get the eart yet

[dire zephyr]

https://eartguitar.com/products/eart-guitars-nk-c1n-blue?variant=44634899448061

They have only the blue one in UK

[half prawn]

blue is nice anyway

but yh i aint got that kinda money

[dire zephyr]

This is a lot better than an affinity

[half prawn]

maybe 240 is max i can do

[dire zephyr]

Then go for the eart Strat

[half prawn]

thats like 270

240 is like a maybe

[dire zephyr]

Squier for that price will suck mad booty

[half prawn]

true

k ill stick with the harley benton im using for now and save up for the eart

thanks man

[half prawn]

if im gonna save up that much u know a good telle for a similar price?

[dire zephyr]

The eart I sent you and that’s it

I don’t know any good teles tbh

Jet guitars maybe

[robust snow]

maybe a used classic vibe tele?

[pure flare]

It's vastly better. An affinity (or above) squier would probably need to be bought used for your budget, but that's not really rare to find.

My own telecaster is a squier adfinity with fender pickups and I paid 200 euros for it, so it's definitely possible.

[half prawn]

dw i forgot to select britihs pound

i can afford the eart 100%

its 207 pound

[dire zephyr]

Ik I even converted it

[grave nimbus]

#795553671773290536

[dire zephyr]

damn you keep sending this like the recommendation list doesnt have only 9 generic electrics only 6 of which are actually decent

[grave nimbus]

I see télé or strat for 200...there isn't a world to suggest

[dire zephyr]

yeah but you can do better than an affinity for that price

[native tapir]

Maybe look around marketplace style sites

[half prawn]

Oh

[scarlet lagoon]

same i got an 100 quid one

complete garbage

it breaks the strings when u use the tremolo

[half prawn]

ikr
