For those who don't like the price of the NF 53, the NF3 SE seems to be a good choice?

When looking at the comparison between these two guitars, the NF3 SE gets the deep dish pickups...actually three of them and a tremolo. For $800, your getting an excellent deal. Yes the neck is a tad longer on the NF 53, and swap ash wood, but in this video when comparing the two, they sound pretty close to me on the back an front pickup. In the middle position, the NF 53 has more of a Tele sound vs the NF3. However, NF3 provides a 5 way toggle which provides more sounds.

I haven’t tried the NF53 yet, but the SE NF3 is quite a bit different from the NF3. It can scratch the itch like a base level Camaro is still a Camaro but it’s not an SS regardless of what you do to it.
