Modifications/RepairsNeck pickup is a Duncan 1/4 Pounder. Bridge pickup is aftermarket, probably Duncan.

This 1974 Fender Telecaster has some Grand Ole Opry history! It was owned by Melvin Sloan of the Melvin Sloan Dancers. If you went to the Opry in the '80's, or 90's, there's a good chance you saw Melvin and his talented troupe of dancers doing their clogging thing. Ok, back to this Tele, it's in very good condition. Almost all original except for the pickups: the neck pickup is a Duncan Quarter Pounder. The bridge pickup is another replacement of unknown origin. It looks like a Duncan product as well. The guitar plays well, sounds great and for a mid '70s Fender, it's not too heavy at 8.4 pounds. This Tele comes with an '80 hardshell Fender 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.
