Fender / 'Long Tall Ernie' & 'Hank The Knife' Telecaster / 1969 / Guitar

When I was something like 14 Years of age, Long tall Ernie & the Shakers were really the no. 1 hot Rock & Roll band in Holland. they often played on stage in my blackguard, and I considered them one of the best Rock and Roll bands of Holland, big fun on stage, and great music. Later on Hank the Knife & the Jets played this guitar, and made it even more famous with a their great hit 'Guitar King' Back then as you can see it was much whiter, and already very cool, but it aged like all olympic white Fender do. This is a guitar with a great history.

A Fender telecaster 1969, is all original up to the last screw, it's also Excellent original condition, with original Olympic white body, yellowed moderately, typical for Olympic white guitars from this era. This guitar has all the right vibes and looks, weighs in at only 3.1kg, and has killer, tone. all original finish, all original pickup with original winding, switch, hardware, plastics, tuners up to the last screw. The Bridge holds the '66 DES designation, and like most guitars of this era it's equipped with 1966 pots. A great guitar with minimum wear and Solid alder body, 1-piece medium-profile maple neck with skunk-stripe, 60s medium C profile, 7.25" radius, the much appreciated maple fretboard with 21 frets, Telecaster-Logo on headstock, 6x original Fender "F" style Tuners, original 3-way crl-switch, original double-saddles, 3-ply white pickguard, 41mm (1 5/8") width at the nut,650mm(25 1/2") scale, Included is a very cool wooden hard-case that probably transported the guitar all it's life, since most Fender guitars came with Optional case In Europe, Since most musicians didn't have the extra bucks to pay for the case, they simply made one, and this one is solid. A nice detail are the numerous string packages that came with the guitar that date back to the early years of this guitar, one is even holding a Picture of Eric Clapton when he was a young 'guitar-god'. This guitar comes with full owner history.

ABOUT US

I have always been opposed to being trapped into a job eight hours a day to purchase the free time to do what I enjoy. That’s why i started the Fellowship of Acoustics. The fellowship of acoustics was founded by Rudi Bults, Guitarist and obsessed with tone and wood. The idea was offering real expertise when trading and selling the finest instruments in the world from our showroom in Bergentheim, Netherlands. Helping others find the right tools and enjoying an atmosphere that’s unhurried, honest and informative that’s my go. We are nothing like the "supermarket" style music stores, but specialize in string-things only. We are widely known for Flattop guitars but also sell electric, mandolins & banjo’s, amps, parts, and accessories. Our store has earned the reputation for being a great place to shop for the best products and service.
It is our hope that this new website - much more than a list of "gear" for sale - will serve as an example of our commitment to offering a more personal approach, a friendly atmosphere, and an ultimately more satisfying experience for our friends and customers.
If you have any questions just dial +31-523-232205 or e-mail info@thefellowshipofacoustics.com My name is Rudi Bults, and I’m always here to help out. Wherever possible, we would recommend that you visit our store and experience our instruments and service first hand. However, because of our high standards you can be confident of ordering online from us. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site, and welcome your feedback.
