Description Brand: Fender
2016 Fender Japan (FENDER SPECIAL RUN) 1950's TelecasterAn AMAZING 1950's inspired Telecaster crafted by the master builders of Fender Japan. They really don't get any better than this - factory fresh! This guitar is yet another tragic example of how Fender is really missing the boat by importing only a few models from their Japanese subsidiary to other countries. It is a super-rare '50's Reissue Telecaster that was crafted by Fender Japan . And yes indeed, it is VERY Keith Richards / Micawber! Buying one of these would save a fellow a lot of trouble if he is in a Rolling Stones tribute band!This guitar is expertly crafted with a white ash body that is sprayed with a light Butterscotch Blonde finish, so that the grain shines through. In real life, the finish is a bit lighter than the US Made ‘52 re-issues. It is at least a shade or two lighter, and is closer to the way the finishes came from the factory in the early 50s. It comes set off with a classic flat black pickguard.This model comes with a Fender humbucker at the neck and a traditional vintage single coil at the bridge. It has been said by some sources in Japan that the pickup used in the neck position is actually a Gibson PAF '57 reissue humbucker. I cannot verify this, but it certainly has that Gibson 'bucker sound. The neck has a nice chunky profile with a deep nitro tint, and vintage frets. Gotoh tuners complete the set-up - famed for their stability.The craftsmanship on this guitar is impeccable. The fretwork, nut-detailing and finish is superb. The neck pocket fit is as tight as they come. The main reason these guitars are not exported is because their quality surpasses that of the Fender USA products.
Please check my 100% feedback for buying confidence. Also you're more than welcome to come and try it out before you buy- if you have any more questions or want more pics then send me a message.SEE MY OTHER GUITAR LISTINGS
