Fender HMT (“Heavy Metal Tele”) Thinline from Fender Japan, serial J002737 (1989–90). It’s the semi-hollow version, with an f-hole, cream binding and the pointy late-80s headstock. It’s a player-grade guitar with honest wear and a lot of attitude. I bought this guitar for a very specific project almost 20 years ago, used it very sparingly and then it was stored in a gig bag with light tension on the strings. The pictures you see are the condition the guitar was in when I purchased. I do have the Kahler trem arm but it is in storage and I need to dig it out to take a photo. Sold "as is" with no warranties expressed or implied.
