Fender / Telecaster / 1972 / Blonde / Guitar
Here’s an all-original, one-owner 1972 Fender Telecaster. Oozes mojo all over!
Fantastic guitar, very resonant, quite twangy, and very sweet in the neck position. Everything in this guitar is original. It has been played continuously throughout the years, and you all know what that usually means… yup, a tone machine.
Nice condition for a guitar that’s seen a lot of stages, smoke and r’n r. Incredible checking all over the body.
We got this from the first owner, who bought it new back in the day. Original Fender cases cost almost as much as the guitar did, so most of them passed and bought an alternative case, which is what we include here. Looks quite cool, actually.

Guitar Giraffe, Spain
In the last few years, online sale for musical instruments has experienced an amazing growth, but has passed right through the pre-owned market (that is, in Spain), limiting it to specialised forums and private owners. This is why Guitar Giraffe was born, the first physical and online second hand guitar and amp store (we like to call it "pre-owned", since we see a big difference between both terms), with a clear commitment of giving new options to guitarists locally and worldwide. Pre-owned guitar stores, so common in UK and USA, were practically nonexistent in Spain. We’ve wanted to fill that empty space by becoming the first physical and online store in our country focused on pre-owned guitars and amps.
