This is a Telecaster Custom made by Fender Japan.
Based on the specs, it corresponds to the TC72 model, but since the neck pocket is stamped "Order Made", it is considered a special custom-order piece.
The finish is White with a matching headstock, and it features a unique yellow leopard tortoiseshell pickguard.
The serial number indicates it was made between 1989 and 1990.

Upon researching, I found that a similar Telecaster Custom with an "Order" stamp and labeled CTC-55R was previously sold on Reverb.

Additionally, according to domestic sources in Japan, it seems this model was made as a tribute to HARRY (Hiroaki Murakoshi) from The Street Sliders.
There appear to be at least two versions: one with a 4-bolt neck joint, and this one with a 3-bolt joint.
I also found a few similar guitars with “ORDER” stamped in the neck pocket but without the CTC-55R marking.

In any case, this can be said to be a rare and special model.
The leopard-print pickguard really catches the eye and looks super cool.

The guitar weighs approximately 3.3 kg.

As it's over 35 years old, it does show some noticeable wear, but the frets still have plenty of life left, and the guitar has been cleaned and lightly set up. The color of the neck and body is different, but other guitars with the same specifications also showed this contrast—possibly part of the original specs.
The guitar is mostly original, except for the replacement knobs.

The included accessory is a non-original gig bag.

Please note that this is a used item.
There are no issues with its current functionality, but please understand that you may need to make further adjustments after purchase to suit your preferences.
Be sure to review the photos and description carefully before placing a bid.
