1998 Fender Custom Shop '52 Reissue Telecaster, Blonde, Lefty




























A very, very clean - almost 'as new' Lefty Fender Custom Shop '52 reissue Telecaster complete with case, certificate and tags. The condition is quite remarkable given this guitar has nearly 27 years under its belt!
Visually the most noticeable aspect is the beautifully figured Maple neck. It has some really attractive grain and gentle flame, punctuated perfectly with the black dot fingerboard markers.The Ash body also shares the same visually appeal with a nice grain peaking through the see-thru blonde finish. The quality of woods used by the Custom Shop is evident with this one.
Playability wise it has a full feeling C profile neck with a nice graduation in the shoulders. The original frets show barely any wear in-keeping with the overall condition. All of the hardware is in excellent condition from the chrome bridge and brass saddles right down to the saddles adjustment screws.
Sound wise expect classic Tele twang and warm bell like tones. It's 'modern' wired without the dark circuit, so you get bridge or neck pickup and both in the middle position.
All in all there's not much to add beyond what you see in the photos. If you're a lefty and looking for a clean original reissue Tele from a good period of manufacture this one ticks all of the boxes. Comes complete with origianl tweed hard case, COA and tags.
