Fender James Burton Telecaster - USA - 1994 - Black & Gold Paisley
James Burton has influenced generations of guitar royalty with his perfectly phrased late-'50s/early-'60s Tele work with artists like Ricky Nelson, and his later stints with Elvis Presley, Emmylou Harris, Elvis Costello, and many others only furthered his revered elder-statesman status. This is such a beautiful instrument, with such stunning presentation.
Featuring a basswood body with a black & gold Paisley finish, its beautiful unique and further enhanced by the gold hardware. The headstock has some classy gold tuners with pearloid buttons and James Burtons Signature at the top. Maple neck and fretboard with a 60’s U profile and 9.5” radius. Stratocaster like pickup configuration with three Lace Sensor pickups. Sounds absolutely incredible. Master volume & tone controls. All electrics working as they should.
The playability on this guitar is exceptional with the low action and superb comfort. This guitar is a clear winner. Truss rod working.
In great condition. Some aging present on the top of the body with the Paisley being darkened at the elbow and picking area. Very little fret-wear. Neck is pristine. Hardware is in excellent condition and all original.
