  • Description: ** PRICE REDUCED! ** Custom Built Telecaster® Style Guitar. This guitar was built by a prominent Luthier in the western U.S. That's about as much as I can say about the Luthier himself, as he doesn't want his name out there(Personal reasons). It was special built for a customer with the following features(he wanted an axe much like Bruce Springsteen's): One piece ash body with a very thin natural finish, so you can still feel the grain of the wood. Highly Flamed maple neck with a Birds-eye Maple cap fretboard(how often have you ever seen that combination?!). To top it off, the guitar was then loaded with Fender® equipment, including; Fender® vintage-style bridge & saddles, Fender® electronics, including their Vintage Noiseless™ pickups, Fender® tuners, etc... This thing plays and sounds great. I'd put it up against any Custom Shop Tele® that Fender® makes. The original owner of this guitar paid big bucks to have it built(over $3k), but you can get it here for MUCH less. Please note that no strap buttons were ever installed, nor holes drilled for them. Not sure why, but it's heavy enough(8.5lbs) that ya may want to sit down and play it anyway?? If you like Teles, you'll LOVE this axe! Comes with a hardshell case. MAKE OFFER! More pics on website.
