| Cosmetic Condition: | This vintage Fender Telecaster shows nice aging, with various light chips, scratches, and dings on the glossy body finish. The pickguard has two small cutouts near the neck pickup from a previously mounted humbucker, and there is some heavier finish wear on the back of the body. The neck is glossy with various light dings, and patches of wear along the surface and sides of the fretboard. |
| Serial Number: | 523008 |
| Tech Notes: | The guitar plays well with low action and optimal neck relief. The neck is straight even with the truss rod fully loose, so 10 gauge strings or heavier are recommended. The frets are tall with minimal wear, and the serial number, neck stamp, and pot codes date to 1973. |
