Description

This is one you don't see every day. It's a 1958 Fender Telecaster with some Broadcaster parts in the mix: bridge, neck plate, strap buttons, and the flathead screws you see. We don't have the backstory and why this came to be, but it definitely has some character. This one also has a tremolo for extra flair and fun. The neck on this is dated 4/58, and we assume that's when the body was made aswell. The neck's finish is original and just got a fresh refret in-house. The body was stripped of it's blonde finish at some point and sprayed red. What's important is that it rocks and if you were inclined to get it refinished again, you know you would have a guitar warranting it.

Comes in 70s Japanese HSC
