Early 1962 Fender VI anyone?

This guitar looks great. Expert body restoration by Clive Brown in fiesta red, this is a great example of the colour done well. 

The neck, dated March 1962, has thankfully not been refinished but has been refretted with a new nut having been fitted. The tuners are Kluson reproductions. 

The hardware and plastics are in good condition with some signs of wear, but nothing too extensive.

Electrically there have been a few minor changes. The volume pot is a later example and there are a few changed wires. The classic early style pickups seem untouched. 

The guitar comes with its correct and VERY hard to find brown Tolex hardshell case.

A true crossover instrument, approached as a bass this delivers some great low end though the string spacing can be a struggle. Playing chords is a revelation and with the right gauge of strings all can be achieved with ease.

A unique instrument with so much potential. You’ll want one in your collection.
