Up for sale, a 1989 Fender Fender Telecaster Thinline ‘72 vintage reissue model TN72-75 in excellent, 100% original condition and in perfect working order. This “Made in Japan” Tele was produced at the Fujigen factory during the golden age of Fender Japan production, offered to the domestic Japanese market and uncommon outside its country of origin.

Boasting Wide Range humbuckers more tonally faithful to the Seth Lover-designed originals than many other Fender reissues of the era, this guitar is fat and full-sounding while retaining a distinctive, sweet top end character and percussive cut. Lightweight at 6lbs 13oz, the ash body provides a certain midrange punch, and the semi-hollow construction adds warmth and openness to the sound. This Telecaster Thinline benefits from a professional setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
