American Special with the texas special pickups. I love the very smooth neck and my favorite is the jumbo frets which make it so easy to play and bend. Just about everything a man could ask for in a guitar. Such a huge step ahead of Mexican/other fender imports. highly recommend you go American. Special is the entry. It's discontinued now but you can still find them. thank you fender for a great guitar.
