Pickups are the original 70's grey bobbins,the volume pot and one tone pot are changed out,the mid tone pot is original,also wired different on the tone pots,to control the treble of the bridge pickup,this is a welcome option,since most of the time these are too bright in sound.
5 way switch is also the original one as well as the black knobs,backplate is orginal too.
The nut on the neck and the string trees changed out for Graphite ones and color matches the pickguard.
The maple neck is in very good condition,light fretwear but loys of life left in them.
This guitar plays very smooth and sounds all the way legenday Fender,it has that Glassy/Bell sound.
This is no collectors guitar but a player,if you're looking for that this may be the one,this guitar is 36 years of age and a true relic.
Guitar will be delivered in Fender hardshell case and original manual,more pictures on request.
