Description

What makes this guitar special:  100% original & finished in a rare Dakota Red.  In addition to that the guitar comes with its original owner's manual, Fender strap & polish cloth.  A superb player with classic Tele tones & delivered with a pro set up from the experts at Cream City Music.

Cosmetic Condition:  Really great shape for its age with some minor play wear - various nicks, chips, dents & dings; surface scratches & some light pitting in the body finish.  Overall the guitar looks wonderful & has real charm to it.

Neck:  Nicely rounded maple neck with skunk stripe & black dot inlays.  Frets show some light wear, but have plenty of life in them.  The front of the headstock has mellowed into more of a light caramel color, but the decals are in great shape with bits missing.  F-tuners are in perfect working condition.  1 5/8" nut width; 25 1/2" scale length. 

Body:  Solid ash body finished in a rare Dakota Red.  String-thru bridge with three adjustable barrel saddles & original cover included.  3-ply white pickguard shows some scratches, but no cracks.  Guitar weighs a whopping 10.6 lbs.  She's a hefty one indeed!

Pickups:  Original Tele single coils.  Bridge - 6.17K ohms; Neck - 7.07K ohms.  Master volume & tone controls with knurled knobs; 3-way toggle switch with "top hat" cap.  All electronics are in perfect working condition.

Case:  Original hardshell case included, along with original owner's manual, Fender strap & polish cloth.
