o.k., bear with my ignorance because I know little about electric gear. Back in the day when all I played were electric guitars, my favorites were the Tele and the Strat. I owned a number of them but I'm pretty sure they were all bolt on necks. I recently picked up a MIK tele with a set neck. When did they start doing that??? I haven't paid much attention to the Fender brand since my high school and college years (yup, light years ago) but this one kind of caught me off guard.
