Without doubt the best '52 Blackguard type Tele I've ever played, let alone owned. Not playing enough now so need to shift this on. Glendale guitars currently selling direct on their website for $3150. Glendale's parts are the very best available. To give you an idea of cost of parts, here's a list in dollars:Necks are 800.00, Bodies are 850.00, pickups are 250.00, saddles are 58.00, string ferrules 27.50, Bridge plates 100, Switch tip 24.00, Control plate 34.00, knobs 50.00, machine cup 30.00, neck plate 24.00, Bakelite pick guard 50.00, screws 22.00, pickup springs 10.00, roughly 120.00 for all the electrics. Around 80 for the preferred tuning pegs.So that's $2530 before the staining, lacquering or construction, which is all impeccable.The neck is medium to big (about 2.5cm deep the whole length) starts at the nut as an elliptical V going into a perfect D.The original gig bag has gone awol, so I'm throwing in a high quality PRS luxury gig bag (from the core line, not the SE). If shipping, I will replace the gig bag with a KINSMAN hard foam rectangular guitar case.Pick up from Amersham with cash on collection, postage with insurance with PayPal. Any questions please ask. Happy bidding_ - _ - _ - _ - _ - _The Glendale "Raw Deal Blackguard" SN0227The Glendale "Raw Deal Blackguard" The body is a vintage honey color with a thin Shellac finish, it matches up perfect with the Glendale "Raw Deal" parts.
