This is an original 1972 Fender Telecaster Custom in a beautiful sunburst with very minor wear for a 49 yr old guitar.
1972 was the first year of production for the Tele Custom, and this one plays and sounds amazing! This is very much a players guitar that is ready to shred the moment you pick it up! Low action, fast playing, with a very comfortable neck, and a fingerboard that glides ultra smooth... this guitar is such a joy to play! Check out our video to hear it for yourself.
Comes with the original hard shell case.... black tolex / white piping, with that orange plush interior included.
Non original features of this guitar are that the nut, frets, strap buttons and saddle have been replaced at some point. However, the original nut, strap buttons, and saddle are included inside the case. Also included inside the case is the original ashtray bridge cover. Speaking of ashtray's..... now would be a good time to mention that the inside of the case has a slight scent of cigarette smoke smell to it, and part of the interior liner is peeling due to the old glue losing adhesion. The guitar shows normal wear for its age, with a few dings and some light scratching more pictures available upon request. There are 2 small areas where it appears the finish chipped away, and a previous owner in the past had "repaired" the blemishes by applying what appears to be black fingernail polish??? There is also one small blemish on the fingerboard (see photos for details).
This guitar weighs a comfortable 7.9 lbs and comes with insurance, a restring, and a professional set up upon purchase before we ship it out.
