1982 Fender American Vintage '52 Reissue Telecaster Butterscotch Blonde Fullerton First Year!

These are getting harder to find. 1982 first year Fender Fullerton ’52 Telecaster in its original and beautiful butterscotch finish. This early Fullerton Tele is a great example from the Fullerton reissue era of Fender. Fairly clean for its age, plays and sounds amazing. It has the early thin neck profile these are known for and is quite comfortable. Neck is coded VINTAGE and a small “82” stamped in the pocket. Overall in very good condition less some general play wear, a few finish chips and wear through the finish on the fretboard. A few modifications to note as well — Tuners are replacements and it looks like another type was installed at some point, but no visible holes. Professional re-fret with jumbo frets, pickups were replaced with a set from Lindy Fralin and the pots were replaced as well. All original otherwise. Fully setup and ready to rock! Comes with its original duck foot tweed hard shell case.
