Topic: What guitar is that of Joe's?

Hey Joe or anyone else... What kind of guitar is that in the Miss You hate You Video? It's easy to say tele but I don't think it is a tele. If It is not a tele then what is it? I  think its the same guitar he uses in the New Day Yesterday DVD.

It's a Fender Telecaster with one pickup. So that means it's might be a Fender Esquire? I know they only had one pickup. But it's a Fender, regardless.

Re: What guitar is that of Joe's?

Yeah its a Fender Esquire- they were the first Fender guitars made - before the Broadcaster / Nocaster / Telecaster (in that order)...
basically Leo Fender came up with the Esquire, started to sell that, then decided to put in 2 pu's and call it the Broadcaster.  Fender got sued by Gretsch (I think it was Gretsch at least) for copywrite infringement, which is when the Nocaster came out (basically a Broadcaster without any decal on the headstock) then Fender finally settled on the name Telecaster and its stayed that way ever since.

I believe Joe's esquire is a '52 (?) I know he said something to the effect of its gotta be the loudest Esquire ever made.
