This guitar is actually Brand New, but Reverb won’t let me list it as such because I am not an actual “dealer” and for some reason they have deleted the “mint” category? I’m happy to answer any questions and can provide more photos on request.

I found this 70th Anniversary Broadcaster at a piano shop in Sydney. Apparently they had it in the back of the shop and it had somehow been overlooked. I can say with some confidence that this is the last new 70th anniversary Broadcaster that you'll be able to find.

Features include an ash body with Blackguard Blonde lacquer finish, period-correct black phenolic pickguard, thick "U"-shaped neck, Custom Shop-designed '50-'51 Blackguard pickups, special anniversary neck plate, embroidered case and a custom COA. 

The controls are wired for standard Telecaster operation, while an optional original Broadcaster wiring kit, included in the case, can be installed to replicate the unique "blend" circuit used in original Broadcasters. 

The Broadcaster made quite an impact in its brief existence, and it continues to do so today.
