Description
Description
Of all the Telecasters that have evolved over Fender's history, the early 1950s style is particularly popular.
The classic Telecaster style combines the bold sound of the slightly thick U-shaped one-piece maple neck with the lightness of the ash body. The stately relic finish, aged black with an anodized guard, creates a cool finish. The fingerboard has a gentle 9.5-radius radius and 6105 frets. The pickups are hand-wound Texas Specials, with a 3-way modern wiring. The wide range of the ash body and the powerful resonance of the one-piece maple neck are beautifully combined to create a truly Telecaster-inspired instrument.
As for the condition of this guitar, it has been relic-treated, so there are some areas that are difficult to distinguish, but there are a few small scratches that look new, but it is in excellent condition with no noticeable signs of use. Of course, there are no problems with playability, including around the neck and the electrical system, so it is a guitar that you can enjoy for many years to come. This is an instrument that allows you to fully enjoy the charm of the Telecaster, the original electric guitar, so please consider purchasing it now!
