I don't think it matters to us, as Fender has proved they have little interest in steel guitars. They've put the Bigsby vibrato tailpiece on the Tele, and I expect that will be about the extent of it. Oh Well

I agree. I retired from Gibson and we used a bunch of them. Korean made so they just sell them to builders etc.

A luan triple-8 from Indonesia cobbled together with surplus Strat and Tele parts somehow lacks appeal.
