Fender 1978 Telecaster bass in an extremely rare Antigua finish. I have found no record of one of these being listed here on Reverb ever. 
The finish is in surprisingly good shape for its age. There's some small scuffs and nics as pictured, but the finish is in nicer shape than most of my newer guitars.

The previous owner added P bass pickups to the bass, the routing was done by a good luthier and looks great. These pickups sound awesome. The way it is wired now, the P bass pickups are being used, and the wide range humbucker is not connected. I think whoever purchases this guitar should add some kind of switching system so the humbucker can be used, but I did not want to modify this any more than it already has been. I did notice the right P bass pickup cover is a bit stiff and do not raise and lower as seamlessly as you might hope, I imagine the plastic expanded over time. Everything else appears to be original to me. Please see pictures so see the actual parts on this. 

The frets do show some wear, and a couple stick out the littlest bit on the sides. I was considering taking this to my luthier to have him do some fretwork, but again I did not want to make any more changes to this guitar. I do not know if these are the original frets, but I would imagine they are.

There is a small gap in the neck pocket between the sides of the neck and the body, but the neck appears to be aligned correctly. 

Includes original hardshell case with orange liner. The case does show a good bit of wear as pictured, but it is still very usable. 

I have taken over 50 pictures, but Reverb only lets me upload 25. If you would like more, or anything in particular pictured, let me know and I will send it over.

Comes exactly as pictured, see pictures for exact condition and details. 

Will ship fully insured and packed with care

If you have any questions please let me know. Thanks for looking!
