Up for sale, a 2018 Fender Telemaster Partscaster, pairing a Fender Baja ‘50s neck with an MJT relic’d Blonde nitro lacquer finished body, complete with a hardshell case.

Weighing only 7lbs with a lightweight ash body and one-piece maple neck, this ‘50s-centric tonewood platform is snappy, punchy and dynamically lively. Hand-wound in the USA, the pair of LsL T-Bone single coil pickups feature Alnico 3 magnets, cloth-covered leads, and a steel baseplate on the bridge pickup. Dishing out plenty of Tele twang, this pickup pair is particularly punchy and broad at the neck, with focused snarl and snap at the bridge. The four-way pickup selector switch enables the pickups to be engaged in series for a welcome extra hit of power in the 4th position. This Telemaster benefits from a professional setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.

The Blonde nitro lacquer finish and relic was executed by MJT (who also supplied the Fender-licensed body), and the lacquer is shot nice and thin for maximal resonance. MJT's relic treatment includes lacquer checking and some simulated marks of wear, primarily concentrated around the perimeter. Beyond the relic, there’s virtually no playwear on the instrument. The gloss on the neck profile is smooth and clean.

A vintage hardshell case is included.
