About this listing
A faithful recreation of the classic early '50s "Blackguard" Telecaster. Featuring an ash body, a one-piece maple neck, and a brass three-saddle bridge, this is a guitar that embodies the essence of a vintage Telecaster. Its appeal lies in the solid grip provided by the thick U-shaped neck and the crisp twang sound with a dry attack. The bridge pickup delivers the classic Telecaster sound, combining sharpness with a clear, open tone. The front pickup delivers a warm, rounded tone characteristic of vintage wiring. It produces a bright, fast-attacking sound when played clean, and a raw, commanding sound when driven. This model excels across a wide range of genres, including country, blues, and rock. This instrument is a 2000 American Vintage Reissue model. It features specifications typical of that era, such as a 5-digit serial number engraved on the bridge plate. The pickguard is slightly warped. There is some paint reaction on the lower part of the body, likely caused by a stand. Additionally, the paint on the bodyfs elbow section shows signs of wear and aging. Other than that, there are some minor scratches, but no particularly noticeable damage. There are no noticeable issues with the neck, and it is in good playing condition.
