Description

This remarkable 1956 white guard Telecaster is in excellent all-original condition—a rare find for a '50s model and a true gem for any discerning collector or player. Its vintage appeal is unmatched, with the perfect amount of patina and all original components. The neck features the sought-after full C profile, typical of '50s Teles, providing a comfortable, chunky feel that delivers incredible playability. The original frets, with plenty of life left, enhance its vintage charm while remaining fully functional for modern players. Whether you're after that unmistakable Tele twang or smooth rhythm tones, this guitar delivers the full spectrum of classic Tele tone with impressive clarity and punch. Additionally, this Tele comes with its original accessories, including the strap, ashtray bridge cover, and the original tweed hardshell case, which has aged beautifully alongside the guitar.

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
