Fender Telecaster 2017 Dark Mahogany

I received this guitar in late 2017 in terrible shape. The body had been smashed to smithereens, but all the electronics and the neck were in good shape. It seemed like somebody had bought this guitar only to smash it, considering it was still brand new.

Luckily, I had a mahogany Telecaster body at home ready to stain, clear and rebuild. It is not perfect by any means, but it definitely plays and sounds like a brand new Telecaster. The pickguard and the bridge pickup are the only pieces that are not genuine Fender. The pickguard is a piece of polished stainless steel, and the bridge pickup is a Lundgren 7.3 high output.

Besides a few small nicks on the edges of the body and the string holes not being perfectly straight, this guitar is in fantastic condition.

I will ship this in a gig bag. If you would like a hard case, it will be an extra $100. Offers welcome, thank you for looking!
