Note: See short video in gallery showing how I pack a guitar. I set myself apart with my SETUPS and PACKING. I include setup sheet with each guitar.

This is a 2023 left-handed Fender Mod Shop Telecaster in candy apple red finish. Weight = 7lbs, 8oz.

Condition
Cosmetically the guitar is very clean. There are mild playing scuffs here and there. I found some tiny pinhead size marks on neck and one on headstock (see photos). Frets are in excellent condition. Electronics work perfect. The pickup cavities are copper shielded, and the pickguard was replaced with a WD gray pearloid. The bridge pickup is a 2023 Lollar J-Street, and the neck is a GFS Alnico Strat pickup (manufacturer description of both pickups below). Components inside include 250k pots and a Monty's Guitars oil capacitor.

Features
— Alder body, maple neck
— Lollar bridge & GFS neck pickups
— Vintage ashtray bridge and w/ compensated brass barrel saddles

Sound & Playability
This Tele is in such clean shape and the neck feels great. Believe they called this neck shape "C to D" (do your own research). Plays and sounds great. No issues. Gray pearloid pickguard was probably added. Locking Fender tuners are original. NO case. Cherry on top is my detailed setup and bulletproof packing. Thanks!

Lollar J-Street bridge pickup
Our J Street Telecaster bridge pickup departs from Tele tradition and takes things a few steps further, offering a hotter and darker sound with plenty of grit and grind. Players who love the feel, look, and simplicity of the Telecaster but want a fuller-bodied sound will find the J Street a natural fit.

GFS "Metal Foil" Single Coil Alnico V Shell, Neck
GFS Metal Foil Pickups offer a unique combination of fullness, sweetness and crystalline, transparent high end. These use custom made bar magnets and vintage style scatterwound coils.

These are all metal Strat Pickups. The shells are triple chrome plated steel with solid steel, nickel plated baseplates. The steel baseplate gives these pickups UNREAL levels of "Spank" and percussiveness.  These use custom made Alnico V bar magnets and scatterwound coils, with the entire assembly thoroughly wax potted for squeal-free performance. Since these use so much metal, they are best for medium to low gain applications. These are fatter and thicker than our Ferrite pickups, yet still clearer, cleaner and with a rounder "Shimmer" than typical Strat pickups.

Recent Review:
"Guitar was packed perfectly for shipping. Everything arrived exactly as described. A lot of care and attention was put into the setup (intonation is perfect). Seller was nice enough to include some extras. Excellent seller! Thank you so much!"

International
Please note, on Reverb, I ship to USA and Canada only. On eBay I ship worldwide with eBay International, which has the best pricing. cheers

Guitar Setup
Setup includes new strings (9s or 10s depending on what the nut is cut for), overall polish, clean and oil fingerboard. We spray out any pots that are noisy, turn the truss rod (if necessary) and set string height at low-to-medium action depending on string buzz present. We do a basic setup since setup is highly subjective you may want to get it set to your particular needs by your personal luthier anyway. Thanks!

Packing
Search "How to Pack a Guitar + Hot Girls" on YouTube for a video showing how I pack. I use quality boxes, thick bubble wrap, and peanuts to pack guitars. I have been doing this 15 years and know how to pack well--with or without a hard case. You can also read my packing blog post on my StillKickinMusic website. If you Google "Still Kickin - How to Pack a Guitar" you will find it. Thanks.
