Up for sale is a beautiful Fender Crafted in Japan Blackguard Telecaster, likely an early 2000s TL52-style reissue, finished in classic butterscotch blonde with black pickguard and maple neck. These CIJ Fender Japan models are highly regarded for their outstanding craftsmanship, vintage-correct feel, and killer Tele tone.

This guitar is in excellent condition and has been very well cared for. Finish shows attractive grain through the blonde finish, neck feels great, and it plays exactly like a good Tele should—snappy, resonant, and full of twang. Frets are in great shape with plenty of life left. Electronics function properly. Comes with Hard Shell Case

Features include:

  • Crafted in Japan quality and fit/finish
  • Butterscotch blonde ash-style grain finish
  • Maple ‘V’ neck with vintage vibe
  • Black single-ply guard
  • Classic Tele bridge and control layout
  • Strong vintage-style Tele tone

These Japanese Blackguard Teles continue to rise in popularity and value for good reason. A fantastic player and collectible piece.

Ships securely packed and fully insured. Feel free to message with any questions.
