About This Listing

Into old house brand catalog guitars like Silvertone and Teisco? If so here's a Tele-Star!!!

THE LOWDOWN:

  • Overall fair 
  • Finish has some road wear 
  • Tremolo is incomplete but does the job as a bridge 
  • Electronics work 
  • The PG had a crack by the jack but has been repaired (underneath) it is sturdy but doesn't go doing that over the head loop thing that the dudes in Cinderella did.  
  • Head is intact but is missing two bushing grommets from a round the 1st two tuner pegs (non-issue) 
  • Tele-Star logo is a re-issue aftermarket (not the OG - that fell off a long time ago) 
  • Frets and board are good BUT 
  • There is a chunk of missing edge binding on the top edge of the neck from about the 12th fret up (not weird feeling but is there) 
  • Action is pretty good and quite low and plays well 
  • Knobs are not original 

In all: 

  • This is a cool old MIJ guitar that plays fairly well
