1954 Fender Telecaster Black Guard

Incoming. Telecasters get played a lot, so finding one that's 65 years old and not heavily worn is no mean feat. Most of the black guards out there are either refinished or pretty well trashed. Folks still want them but it's a long process to find a collector grade one. This is a collector grade 54. Folks seem to prefer the 53 and 54 Teles over the earlier ones due to the more user friendly (and better though out) circuit. This one is all original and very clean-I'd call it 9/10. It has no issues of any kind. Ash tray in the case. More photos coming.
