Description
What makes this guitar special: This is a solid-playing Tele that’s still in great shape for its age. It’s about as straight-forward as you can get with the addition of a Fender DH-1 humbucker in the neck. It still has a classic-sounding American single-coil Tele pickup in the bridge and offers a warm, full, and round neck response. The neck is comfortable and easy to move around and the shape should be widely familiar to a majority of players. The body is still in great shape, and outside a few love marks and normal play wear throughout, still looks good for a 16-year-old guitar. Plus, it comes with its original hardshell case and a professional setup so it plays great head to toe.
Condition: This guitar is in very good condition overall. It does show various dings, dents, scuffs, finish chips, some hardware oxidation and surface scratches throughout. The 5-way switch is a little bent but still functions fine. The frets show very little wear, if any, and still have a full lifetime of playing left in them. The neck is straight and the truss rod functions as it should.
Body: Single cutaway solid alder body in Sunburst finish. 3-ply white pearloid pickguard. Chrome plate bridge with individually adjustable deluxe-style saddles. Chrome knurled control knobs.
Neck: C shape maple neck and 9.5” radius rosewood fingerboard with white dot inlays. Sealed chrome tuning machines. 1 11/16” nut width. 25.5” scale length. .82” deep at the 1st fret and .89” deep at the 12th.
Electronics: American single-coil Telecaster pickup in the bridge and Fender DH-1 humbucker in the neck. 1 x volume, 1 x tone control. 5-way pickup selector.
Weight: 8 lbs 8.6 oz
Playability/Sound: The C shape neck is comfortable & will be familiar to a wide variety of players. The American Tele pickup in the bridge is everything you’d hope for in terms of spank and twang, while the humbucker is big, warm, and round.
Case: Includes original hardshell case.
