Which 72 reissue? The big headstock deluxe (looks great but isn't a tele cos of the fake wide rangers in front and back) or the custom (small headstock fake wide range at front and tele rear).
I would say yes to the latter.
Both have maple boards so have sharp attack, which Im not a fan of but thats personal opinion. They play very similar as you would expect. But having both front and rear as wide rangers doesnt give a great amount of tones.
If you have some dollar, maybe look for a second hand custom and with the money you save, find a real fender wide ranger pickup. The difference was discussed earlier in this thread but was lost when somet went wrong with the site.
