This is a Fernandes telecaster copy I bought used in the late 80's.  It plays great!  I have played this guitar at more gigs than I care to count.  I loved playing this guitar!  For its age, it is in really good condition.

Are there dings and signs of use?  Absolutely.  I tried to picture them.  Trying to find out what year this was made was next to impossible with no serial number. 

It's got a nice maple neck, 25.5" scale.  Included are 2 EMG pickups to give this guitar a powerful sound.  It comes with a nice tweed hardshell case and a guitar strap.  I put in locking tuners, and I was not perfect in their alignment (my first attempt).  Look at the pictures and see if it will bother you.  I really can't tell looking at the front of the headstock, but you can see they're a tiny bit off on the back of the headstock.  The Fender locking tuners work great, but you have to decide whether that's something that matters.  If you've never had a guitar with locking tuners, changing strings is so fast and easy when you have them!  If you'd like, I can include a new set of strings 10-46 to put on when you get it.

This is a lightweight guitar with a great sound.  A guitar made in Japan of this age at this price and completely playable? Nice!

If you have questions or need more pics, please don't hesitate to contact me.  My goal is for you to very pleased with any guitar I sell you from my personal collection.
