This 1954 Fender Telecaster is probably from the first batch of white guards made.  A stunningly great guitar with tone for literal days.  Even the neck pickups sounds killer on this thing.  Nice big classic mid '50s "U" shaped neck.  This guitar is lightweight at 7.2 pounds.  It plays great and the original frets still have plenty of life in them.  The nut's been changed and that's about it for issues.  Did we mention how good this guitar sounds?  It's got "Reference" Tele tone.  The guitar comes with the original ash tray (bridge cover) in the cool as can be original poodle 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.
