I’m guessing it’s still going to be pretty pricey, but at least it’s now officially available worldwide – go Richie!

Awesomely beautiful guitar…incredible sound and feel.
I’d really love to have one of these someday – and now with worldwide distro, I might even get to! It’ll take a bit of saving though…
It really is a comfortable playing guitar… if f wasn’t for Richie Kotzen’s design, with the comfort cuts,…I’d never own a tele.
I was gassing for his strat model at one point, but this Tele has always been nice too.
Yeah same here! He seems to exclusively use the Tele these days though.
