Jess Carson says: I've probably played every year Telecaster, from the early 50's to today -and the 1966 and '67 maple caps are my hands down favorite. It's the perfect player neck. It used to be the blackguards and later 50's ones were all anyone talked about but I feel like the word has gotten out on these over the last few years. Some of them can be heavy but if you can find a lightweight one, preferably that has been played a lot, they're impossible to beat.

This 1967 Fender Telecaster pairs a rare blonde finish over an ash body with a maple cap neck, a highly sought-after combination. The pots date to the 18th week of 1966, and the neck is stamped 3SEP67B. Weighing just 6 lbs 13 oz, it’s an extremely lightweight and resonant guitar.

It has been professionally refretted while retaining the original neck wear, and fitted with a new nut for improved playability. Two tuners have been changed to era correct F-style tuners. The two original tuners are in the case.  The original pickups and hardware remain intact. Owned and played by Jess Carson. Comes with certificate of authenticity.
