Vintage 1978 Fender Telecaster USA Natural Refin Electric Guitar
Vintage 1978 Fender Telecaster USA Natural Refin Electric Guitar
A wonderful players grade 1978 Telecaster that sounds truly incredible. The previous owner altered this guitar as follows – a strip of the original olympic white finish to the natural finish you can see, a changed f-tuner to the headstock, a previous neck pickup route then replaced back with the original pickup, subsequently a replaced pick guard, a replaced bridge and bridge pickup, and a pair of replacement knobs too. As you can see, it really is a players grade guitar throughout, hence the price. Everything that has been done on this guitar has actually helped improve the sound. This makes no sense, I know, but it really does sing! Comes with a period Japanese case (possibly original with the guitar since new as this is from the same period). It also came with an original Fender strap which is incredible! You will not be disappointed with this beauty!
