Fender American Vintage ’52 Telecaster Reissue – 1988 – Butterscotch Blonde – Complete Case Candy

For sale is a beautiful Fender American Vintage ‘52 Telecaster Reissue from 1988, one of the early AVRI models that helped establish Fender’s reputation for vintage reissues in the 1980s.

This guitar is 100% original and comes complete with its original tweed case, certificate, hang tags, manual and period documentation, including its original Japanese paperwork. Bridge serial number #9582.

Finished in a beautifully aged Butterscotch Blonde, this Telecaster has developed the look and feel that collectors and players seek in the early American Vintage instruments. The neck is particularly comfortable, featuring a slimmer profile than many later ’52 reissues, making it an excellent choice for players who prefer a fast and easy-playing Telecaster.

The guitar weighs 3.9 kg (8.6 lbs), offering a solid and resonant feel without being excessively heavy.

Condition is excellent for its age. The instrument has just been professionally cleaned, inspected and fully set up with a new set of strings. Frets remain in very good condition and the guitar plays effortlessly across the entire neck.
