About This Listing

Bought last summer and very lightly played. No damage/repairs/etc beyond the refinish & relic work done by Guitarwacky's Custom Relics (more below).  Guitar has been updated (since purchase) to a Bare Knuckle Cobra T bridge pickup (original Seymour Duncan pickup not included) to complement the Seymour Duncan stack neck pickup (not sure what model), compensated brass bridge saddles (originals are included), Ernie Ball straplocks (original strap buttons not included), and GraphTech TusQ nut (original plastic nut not included).  It is set up with a nice action (~4.5/64" bass, ~4/64" treble) with Ernie Ball Power Slinky strings (11-48) in standard tuning.  I am only selling because I don't use this guitar enough and am interested in picking up another Ernie Ball.  Ask any and all questions before purchase.  Shipping to CONUS ONLY.  Absolutely no refunds or returns.

From the original listing:
"No dirt, polyurethane or shoe polish used in any of our relics. We added "mojo" with pigment, and texture, to realistically replicate age and feel of that old heavy relic guitar you've always wanted but couldn't afford. No expense in quality or time was spared to get that custom shop look, feel and sound without shelling out $4-7K. Make Guitarwacky’s Custom Relics your “affordable” alternative. Guitarwacky Custom Relic Finishes ages-the finest affordable American Fender Relic Stratocasters and Telecasters on the market today-with the exception of metal flake finishes; typically under $1500.

Just completed: 2019 Fender American Performer Custom Relic Purple/Lavender Sparkle. This stunning nitrocellulose lacquer finish was professionally and artfully aged by hand. This is not an assembly line produced finish. Guitarwacky's proprietary finish is top quality and was developed over time. The sub-base coat is gold pearl which can be seen shining through the around finish wear. Then purple pearl lacquer on top of the gold. The final metal flake coats were Blakes"Lavander". Blake pearls and paints are the essence of 50's-60's cool vintage vibe. This faded vintage lavander just pops!

Next, the body received the ultimate Guitarwacky proprietary pigment age treatment including vintage shattered glass finish checking. That's finish checking on two layers of lacquer. This difficult process defines vintage instruments. The finish product is authentic and gorgeous; see for yourself.  Don't forget to checkout our other affordable relics, then follow us to be notified when guitars are listed;Google us!

Guitarwacky aged pick guard completes this incredible guitar. Frets dressed and polished and the guitar will arrive freshly setup and ready to play. This beauty is powered by killer sounding Seymour Duncan tele stack pickups. Get punch and clarity, easily convertible to twang when you want or ripping high gain stuff if you prefer. Aged vintage tuners and slinky 09’s; she’s ready to go! Saddles, screws and hardware were aged and sealed, so that they will look tomorrow, the way they look today for years to come.

Understanding the significance of quality, Guitarwacky Custom relics are flawlessly detailed by artisans whose love for guitar can only be measured by the level of detail embodied within their relic art. This tele arrives in original TSA hardshell case pictured."
