Fender Squier Thinline Tele on the bench. It's had the fingerboard edges rolled, fret ends smoothed and polished, frets levelled and polished, neck de-glossed, original vintage bridge swapped out for a modern bridge with solid brass saddles, pots and switch upgraded to CTS, multi-point jack socket supplied and fitted, original bridge pickup swapped out for a Roswell stacked single coil humbucker (surprisingly good pickups) with push-pull switching tone pot, re-strung with Elixirs and setup for E standard tuning on 10's. This would give an American Tele a run for its money.
