1984 Fender Telecaster Vintage American Top Loader Bridge Ivory White Blonde E3 with Hardshell Case

The serial number is E319461, the neck is dated to January-February 1984 and the pots date to July 1983. The color is "Ivory" but has aged to a nice dark Blonde. The body is in excellent condition and is very clean overall. There are a few small nicks, scratches and scuffs but nothing out of the ordinary for a vintage guitar. No cracks modifications or structural issues.

The neck is straight and the frets show only light wear. It's in excellent playing condition and there are no major issues. The fretboard and back of the neck are clean and have no dings or worn areas. The headstock has a few minor nicks around the edges but no major issues. No cracks, repairs or extra holes. The nut is 1.72" wide, the neck measures 0.85" thick at the 1st fret and 0.90" thick at the 12th fret.

The hardware and electronics are in excellent working condition. All parts are original except for the switch which has been replaced. The pickups measure 7.58 Ω (Bridge) and 7.80 Ω (Neck).

It comes in a 1979 Fender plastic molded hardshell case which originally had a Strat inside. It has some general wear on the outside and a lot of area where stickers were removed (all of the adhesive has been removed). All of the latches, hinges and handle are in excellent working order and the interior has no bad odors.

Actual weight for the guitar is 8 lbs 7 oz.

Please note that I do not set up my guitars before mailing. I have played it and everything is great as far as I'm concerned, but you may need to change the strings, adjust the action or do other maintenance to get it to your preferences.

I list some of my items on both eBay and Reverb. In the event that this item sells on both marketplaces before I can take the other listing down, I will honor the first sale and refund the second. There will be no exceptions to this!

SHIPPING

$100.00 for UPS Ground. This is only an estimate on the high-end and will probably be less if you are close to the West Coast. I will refund any overcharge if there is any left over beyond the postage and packaging costs. I mail all of my guitars inside guitar boxes and pad with biodegradable peanuts. Local pickup and payment in cash are available, so feel free to contact me if you're local and want to check it out.

TRADES

I am a dealer and am not looking for any more gear for myself. I may not be able to offer much credit on a trade since I'm buying to re-sell. With that said, I will only consider in-person trades due to shipping costs and taxes. Please do not contact me for a trade unless we can meet in person.

OFFERS

I price my guitars as low as possible and don't consider offers, so please do not ask for a lower price!
