Model: 68' Telecaster Reissue

Condition: very good

Description: 

A Crafted in Japan 68' Reissue Telecaster from Fender Japan's Craft Premium series - This is an interesting one as it has the same specs as the Beck model, and it is stamped on the heel and neck pocket as the Beck model but is missing the logo that is usually found on the rear of the headstock on the Beck model. Its possible that it was either made without it, or the logo was removed. Besides that, this is an absolutely killer '68 Tele that plays like a dream and is overall in great condition. The body has light surface marks and some very minor chips in the finish along the edge of the body, and also a chip on the rear of the body where the strings go through between the G and B slot. This can be seen in our photos. This one features an Ash body, Original USA bridge pickup, Unknown neck pickup, and an upgraded Tone cap. We've included photos of the wiring and back of pickups. Neck is in excellent condition. Headstock has light wear around the edges but is otherwise clean. Rosewood fretboard has a beautiful dark, rich appearance and is in great condition. Frets have a fair amount of wear up the neck but have no issues with buzzing or fretting out and still have a decent amount of life left in them.  Hardware is in excellent condition especially for its age. Electronics work great and sound great as well. Beautiful Transparent Blonde finish on this with lovely Ash grain. Overall a great playing and interesting Telecaster. Has been fully inspected by our team and ready for a new home. Includes gig bag.
