Fender / Telecaster / 1970 / Blonde / Guitar
|
INFORMATION:
This very pretty original Fender Telecaster from 1970 has a Swamp Ash body with a very pleasant weight of 3,45 kilos, a very comfortable quite round neck, refretted, with medium jumbo frets, and is a resonant guitar with a typical Telecaster sound, with a lot of power and definition. This beautiful one is almost entirely original except for refret, the changed jack (the original one is in the case), and some solders and wires added to individually ground each knob. The pot codes are 1376636 dating from 1966, typical of the huge stock of pots that Fender then bought. Original pickups, hardware, tuners, and finish, this guitar also comes with its original ashtray and a No tail Logo case with the typical 1972 ®. The pickups are powerful and show 7,7 kOhms for the neck and 6,9 kOhms for the bridge pickup.
Very good general condition, with the finish slightly yellowed, but uniformly. This guitar has a lot of mojo and looks so legit, without appearances of wood or annoying damage due to knocks, only the wear of the right arm is visible on the upper edge of the guitar and at the level of the jack which reveals the wood. The neck is in perfect condition, with a fully functional truss rod, perfect frets, action, and comfort, nothing to envy from the Custom Shop.
