Like most long-lasting guitar models, the Tele has seen its share of variations and specialty models come off the line since the early '50s. The standard no-frills Telecaster, however, has stayed largely the same, strutting two single-coil pickups, a slab body of Ash (or later Alder), and an unmistakable twang that helped shape the sound of country and rock music.   Notable users include Albert Collins, Keith Richards, Merle Haggard, Johnny Greenwood, James Burton     This is no exception to the rarity and build-quality of these favored teles!   Product Details   Body: Original single cutaway blonde ash solid-body

Neck: “C” profile, 1 5/8” wide nut, maple fretboard w/ vintage fret wire in good shape, 7.25” radius, and black dot inlays.    Hardware: Two single-coil pickups, white pickguard, volume and tone controls, 25 1/2-inch scale length, string thur-body, these vintage tuners have great stability!   Serial Number: 547472   Weight: 8.0 lbs Case: G&G USA Case   Service History   We pride ourselves on our inspection and set up of each guitar, making this ready to plug in and play.   Please note that this is set up to a standard The Music Locker deems saleable. Personal preference may differ so please see the Product Details section above.   Cosmetic Inspection   Please have a close look at the high resolution photographs below, as these form part of our description.   This is an absolute beauty! It has the highly desired relic'd look through real wear & tear. This look is highly simulated by the Fender Custom Shop today; though it often looks contrived when compared to original examples like this; the real deal! The paint has checked gorgeously throughout the guitar & there is plenty of honest neck wear contributing to a lovely worn in feel; this doesn't affect the play-ability!   Originality   In our opinion, this is all original.   Summary   Overall, this is a very rare and collectable guitar. Not only is this sure to increase in value year on year, but also it can be an enjoyed investment.   You're more than welcome to come along and have a play on this through one of our vintage amplifiers!   Where else but at The Music Locker!   If you click and buy through eBay, please pay (or make contact) with us within 24 hours, in order to let us know your payment plan.
