1995 Fender '52 American Reissue Telecaster
The 1952 Fender Telecaster, inseparable from its one and only butterscotch blonde finish, is undeniably one of the most iconic visions of the electric guitar world. Widely regarded as the design that started the age of the solid guitar, and the instrument without which other classics like the Gibson Les Paul would simply not have been produced, this early incarnation of the Telecaster has a historical importance of even greater magnitude than its stunning, simplistic beauty.
- A translucent blonde finish on an ash body (2 piece centre seam and not 3 like the current US reissue ones), with a fully accurate rendition of the highly-prized butterscotch colouring
- A honey-coloured ‘one-piece’ maple neck, with a silver ‘spaghetti’ logo headstock transfer applied in the traditional way – above, not beneath the finish.
- A black, single-layer bakelite scratchplate.
- Three adjustable brass bridge saddles. (Budz compensated brass saddle; changed by prior owner)
- The original pickups of the USA 52' reissue in 1995 were not sought after hence most people replaced these
- Seymour duncan vintage stack neck pickup (Sweet neck pickup and noiseless too!; changed by prior owner)
- Budz custom wound bridge pickup (a Killer bridge! With the tele snarl and bite; changed by prior owner)
- Nickel-plated Kluson-type machine heads.
- Flat-head (as opposed to cross-head) mounting and fixing screws.
Excellent condition
Comes with tweed hard case.
Was set up professional and plays like butter!
Light weight piece! 2-piece Ash body. A real good guitar
Butterscotch blonde finish
Asking $2200

Notice the 2-piece centre seam body here. Beautiful Ash grain!
