Fender 1971 Telecaster in Shoreline Gold with FACTORY BIGSBY and original Fender hard case.
A beautiful guitar, truss rod is in good order and feels lovely to play.
Neck Date - 3 AUG 71 B.
It has undergone a few changes over the years (as detailed below) but is an original Factory Bigsby guitar. A couple of extra notes - the bottom strap button is a newer one, the 1st String bridge saddle are replacements, and the pickguard is an old Fender one, but I can't be sure it is original to this exact guitar. Neck profile is very slightly larger around the back than most from this era and is a pleasant surprise.
