Fender Telecaster Custom '62 Reissue, 1997-98 (Crafted in Japan)

This Fender Sunburst Telecaster Custom '62 Reissue comes with original Texas Special pickups, delivering that classic SRV punch. The guitar has natural wear, as a '97 guitar that's been played and loved will have. The body has a classic double white binding on the front and back and a three-ply scratch plate.
 
This Tele plays extremely well, with great action and a neck that's been played in enough to feel very easy to play and glide up and down the rosewood fretboard. The frets show a little wear but still have plenty of life in them. A couple of small dents on the back of the neck, and some small chips and scratches around the edge of the body, add character and give it a naturally relic'd vibe.
