Modifications/Repairs1952 neck, late 1960s body, full refinish and changed logo, refret, changed tuners, changed pots, reproduction pickguard, 1 changed control plate screw, replaced nut

This Tele is a bit of a Frankenstein's monster, but all the pieces add up to one cool guitar. It features a 1952 neck matched with a late 1960s body that has been fully refinished with a changed logo decal. It has had a refret, changed tuners, changed pots, given a reproduction pickguard, 1 changed control plate screw, and a replaced nut. The pickups have been swapped for Joe Barden Hot Rails, a combo that Bruce Springsteen famously has played. Includes original hardshell case.

*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.
