This is an exact replica of George Harrison's solid Brazilian  Rosewood 1969 Telecaster. Or as close as I could getTHIS ACTUAL INSTRUMENT HAS BEEN SOLDMY REPLICAS IN SOLID ROSEWOOD ARE NOT A KIT BUILD. The body and neck are roughly shaped in Brazil but that is it.It is hand built in Sydney from Brazilian Rosewood ( not a veneer......it is 4 solid blocks with a maple sandwich in between). It has no skunk stripe down the neck. The truss bar is in the neck underneath a piece of perfectly fitted rosewood.Adjustable from the body endThis wood came openly through Australian Customs and is NOT on the endangered species list in Brazil. The wood Gibson once used was and still is.Fitted with era correct hardware and electrics with expensive Australian Hand Wound Michael Brierley pick ups. The neck pick up is wound the opposite direct to give a hum bucking feature. Switching is 5 way and cables are cloth covered with the correct era pots and other electrics.Finish is true to era using Nitro Cellulose satin finish. For some reason the Japanese veneered copies are glossy. Not what George had at all. And yes, the logo is a waterslide and does sit ON TOP of the finish. They are meant to be there as is the single string tee.I supply them in a very nice black period hard case with a leather strap. Within Australia I have one price for delivery and that is $60.00, There is no pick up as I am not a street front shop.Delivery from placing your order is 3 months and I will not divert from the original George Harrison Fender specs under any circumstances, so don't ask.This is a bespoke instrument HAND made just for you.Deposit only by bank transfer and 50% is required before we build your bespoke instrument. FULL REFUND within 5 days of delivery to you IF you are not fully satisfied. The instrument has to be in exactly the same condition for a full refund. Less shipping and handling costs.Yours is yours alone as we all know that not any one guitar is exactly the same. Grains and the woods natural features vary.Being SOLID Brazilian Rosewood for the body and neck, it is a heavy guitar at about 4 kilos.We do recommend you have the guitar setup to your own liking but we supply the instrument checked and ready to play anyway.Ask any questions and remember this is an instrument that will not be rush built. I put 9 coats of Nitro with a 0000 wire wool rub between coats and 2000 grit paper to finally finish the surfaces before a very light buffing ( not a polish) Days go by between coats.ASK ABOUT SHIPPING OVERSEAS FROM SYDNEY
