One of the best Telecasters we've had in recent memory! This fully original 1954 "Blackguard" example is light weight and exceptionally resonant; even acoustically the notes jump out of this one. The large '54 "soft V" shaped neck dates to March of '54, and is comfortable and straight with plenty of fret life. The original pickups and electronics deliver a versatile array of incredible tones and remains wired in its original '50s configuration. Blackguard Telecasters are one of the most desirable electrics in the vintage market for good reason and this 1954 model is a perfect example! Includes the original Fender leather gig bag and a newer hardshell case.
