Description: 

Here for your consideration is a 1985 Fender '52 reissue TL52 Order Made Keith Richards Micawber Telecaster in very good condition! In fantastic shape for a 40+ year old Tele and perfectly worn to give it just the right amount of vibe! The body shows a fair amount of light surface marks and dings, and also a fair amount of finish cracking/checking in the clear coat. Otherwise, the body is in overall great shape with no major damage or issues. The neck is in excellent shape with no notable damage or blemishes. Headstock shows a couple light marks along the edges, but is otherwise very clean. Fretboard shows some light surface marks and some impressions on the 2nd and 3rd frets, but is otherwise in good shape. Frets show a moderate amount of wear with some minor divots in the first few frets, otherwise in good shape with no buzzing, dead spots, etc., and a good amount of life still left in them. Hardware shows some age, light pitting on the chrome, and minor tarnishing on the bridge, but is overall in good shape and all working perfectly. Electronics have been thoroughly inspected and cleaned, and work perfectly. Neck pickup is a Maxon "Screamin '82" humbucker that sounds incredible! The oiginal bridge pickup was dead, so we installed a brand new Fender Pure Vintage '52 which we feel is an appropriate replacement. Overall super clean for its age, plays wonderfully, and has tons of mojo! Get yer ya ya's out with this one! Has been fully inspected and set up by our in house luthier and ready for a new home. Includes gig bag.
