Brandoni Custom Telecaster Electric Guitar 2004 + Hard Case Japanese Parts TL-52

Brandoni Custom Telecaster electric guitar. Made by Brandoni circa 2004 as a custom order.

Sadly Roberto Brandoni passed away last year but his legacy of putting together excellent guitars remains, and this is no exception. 

Brandoni is mostly known for the guitars built from the left over stock of Italian made Vox and Eko guitars but the internet forums and other similar listings suggest he also purchased some Japanese parts from the factory that made Japanese Fender / Tokai and I believe that this guitar was put together by Roberto from Japanese parts in his Wembley workshop.

The body is solid Alder, Matt finish ( possibly oiled ) and stamped TL-52 in the neck pocket, The neck / board is maple and is lovely to play, nicely rolled edges and a comfy profile, this is a lovely Tele.

I'm unsure to the origins of the hardware but the saddles are Brass and the tuners are Kluson type. (See pics of the pickups and controls).

It has a circular single string tree and body end truss rod adjustment.

The strings are new 10s at the time of listing and the guitar plays really nicely. 

There is a a few indents on the body, a linear indent on the front and other minor indents around the edges.

Comes with non original hard case.

I can't keep them all but this is one I'm tempted by...
