Super super cool and vibey 1961 Custom Telecaster ....... This has a great nitro refin (you can see the greenish yellow glow of the original finish inside the cavities and neck pocket in the black light pics), what appears to be original pickups ( no way to tell for sure as pickups from this period have no dates but these have the right color bobbin wire and patina on the soldier joints to be period correct) ...... 6.9K bridge and 6.5K neck, 1961 neck plate , original bridge and other hard ware (even has the original switch tip). body has the router pin marks on the back still visible under the new finish and the impression of what appears to be a 10/60 body date in the bridge pickup pocket (looks like they tried to preserve this when it was refined , electronics are old but the date is not readable on either pot, Guitar is wired modern with the tone control on the Bridge pickup only, Neck appears old but has no date (not sure of Manufacturer) ...... it has a replacement logo and we can not say for sure what year it is, tuning keys are quality repro no line Klusons, and it comes with a super rare fully functional Blonde case. Guitar has a Green Nitrate pickguard, not sure how old but it is already shrinking a little....I believe it to be a super high quality repro of unknown vintage. This guitar is amazing and Ready to gig right now. Get it while you can as Vintage Custom Telecasters are super Rare and so is the case!!
