Description
What makes this guitar special: This is a great-sounding Tele with excellent playability and one of the most classic finishes you can find. The Tex-Mex pickups this guitar comes loaded with fully embody the traditional sound, yet also reflect a bit of the 50s vibe. They still have the round and full neck response and the timeless twang in the bridge, but have a bit smoother response and some additional warmth that adds to its vintage vibe. The C shape neck is a pleasantly chunkier than the modern shape and with the wear on the back, plays very easily from the nut up into the cutaway. The Road Worn finish is actually pretty mild, so players who do and don’t enjoy the pre-worn look can play it happily. Plus, it comes in a classic-looking finish and a professional setup from our techs.
Condition: This guitar is in excellent condition overall. Outside of the purposeful wear and tear from the Road Worn finish, it’s difficult to see many new marks outside of a few minor dings and light scratches, which are mostly on the pickguard, but it is otherwise in fantastic shape for a used guitar. The frets show only light wear and still have a considerable amount of playing time left in them. The neck is straight and the truss rod functions as it should.
Body: Single cutaway ash body in Road Worn Vintage Blonde Nitrocellulose finish. Vintage-style strings-through-body 3-saddle bent plate bridge. Knurled dome control knobs. Single-ply black pickguard.
Neck: C shape maple neck with worn finish and 7.25” maple fingerboard with black dot inlays. Vintage-style tuning machines. 1 5/8” nut width. 25.5” scale.
Electronics: Tex-Mex single-coil Telecaster pickups in the neck and bridge. 1 x volume, 1 x tone control. 3-way pickup selector.
Weight: 7 lbs 13.3 oz
Playability/Sound: The C style neck is super comfortable and with its worn finish, plays that much easier. The pickups are inherently Telecaster with a bit smoother response thanks to the Tex-Mex sound. The neck is still warm and full and the bridge is bright with classic Tele twang.
Case: Includes Fender gigbag.
