Are they pretty much out of stock everythere in UK/Europe now? Will there more more coming in?
 
I've honestly no idea Steve - taken me all year to get one. I think stores are still 'expecting stock' but rumours are that Fender are not making more..

A shame - the first Fender 'non guitar' instrument i've truly liked!
 
This one is interesting. Thanks for the review :)

Thanks Baz - I'll keep my eyes open.
 
The Fender Tenor Tele is probably destined to become as rare as the Fender Mandocaster.

Oooh yes - always wanted to come across one of those!
 
Thanks for the review that sure is a neat instrument. I think that finding strings for CGDA tuning should not be that difficult, might even be possible with the OEM strings.
 
Possibly - and if not - just a case of buying some other electric guitar strings and experimenting. Know someone who says they tuned one to GCEA (presume also, lighter strings all round).

It's very neat - and nice to review a Fender and be positive for a change - i've always pointed out in Fender uke reviews that I LOVE their guitars. If only they made their ukes to this quality.
 
Thanks for the review, Barry! I play mostly soprano ukes, but I’ve always wanted a Telecaster (and definitely NOT a Fullerton). I ordered one in butterscotch blonde from Elderly and waited for months, but when it arrived I was delighted. I have limited 6 string skills, but I’ve been transferring my ukulele skills and playing through Baritone Ukulele Fretboard Aerobics. I really love the thing and am glad I bought it.
