I got the HH Tele in that finish. It’s really good for $200. Roasted Maple neck and fretboard, locking tuners, stainless steel ball-end frets and a finish that you could only get from G&L custom shop until a few months ago. It was a no-brainer for me. This is my 4th Firefly guitar. I’ve kept 2 of them.

Merry Christmas to you Joe. Good idea to get yourself an xmas present. I'm going to follow your example and get myself a guitar in the new year sales.

Just ordered my 4th firefly, purple and black strat, got my 1st one bout 3-4 years ago, lp copy, it was worth the money, after I had I a couple years had to do a fret level, 4th fret was a little high, no biggie, next I got the tele in the black galaxy finish and it's awesome, ordered another lp copy right away, it arrived with a broken pickup ring on the neck humbucker, customer service got right back with me and said they would refund 16 bucks if I kept the guitar, looked at replacement parts and was able to get better rings for 4 bucks, accepted the offer, am waiting on the strat now, and am expecting another nice guitar, thanks Joe!

I’ve got 2 firefly’s… the 338 semi hollow and the goldtop p90 classic. They’re both great guitars for the money! Great modding platforms, but I recently picked up the Jet JS350 Strat and JT300 Tele and they are the kings of budget guitars…. The hype is real !! The necks alone are worth the 200$ price tag.

Just ordered the white strat. Locking tuners, bone nut, alnico 5 pickups, stainless steel ball end frets, abalone inlay markers, Korean bridges, roasted Canada maple neck with a rosewood fretboard...not sure if the body is ash or mahogany. I'm thinking ash, but that may depend on the model. The strats and 338's are my favorite models....although the Les Paul and SG models look great the strats are way more comfortable and playability is great. There 338's are really nice as well. My least favorite were the older tele style they offered, but the newer ones look like they may be way better so I'll probably order one of those eventually.

Hey Joe, I think I saw that the truss rod adjustment was at the pickguard - the wheel style... is that right?

Yup 👍

I just went on the website and all the Les Pauls, Flying V, and Explorer style guitars are all gone now. Glad I got mine back when I did I got 3 gorgeous Les Paul style guitars and 2 Explorer styles one in gloss red that looks very much like my 1983 Destroyer and one in a silver burst. I love them too bad they are all gone now.

Do not trust their shipping choices. They owe me a FFTL that was left on the streets of Philadelphia due to their no signature nonsense with FedEx! I like the baritone I got from them though. It's great, so I ordered another Tele until I sort it out with them using UPS.
