Northwest Vintage Guitars presents a lovely 1973 Fender Telecaster with an Ash body and see through Blonde finish.  It received a full re-fret from our luthier and plays like a dream.  The fretboard was leveled and refinished in Nitrocellulose Lacquer so it will wear in like a 50's Fender.  It retains the original pickups, switch, pots, and output jack.   The pickups read 7.0k ohms at the neck and 5.96k at the bridge and deliver that twangy 70's Tele tone we love.   The pots date to the 18th week of 1965.  25.5" scale, 7.25" radius, 8.81 lbs.  Comes safely packed and fully insured in the Original Hard Case in the photos. 

The nut measures ,1.64" neck depth is  at the 1st and 12th frets respectively.  It's the wonderful 70's D profile that is one of our favorites.  Freshly strung and accurately intonated with D'Addario 10-46 nickel strings and perfect factory spec 4/64"-3/64" action.  The frets measure .103" wide and have their entire life ahead of them.  The neck is straight, the truss rod turns in both directions, and the relief is currently set for optimum playability.  There are a few scratches and dings as pictured.  It remains in excellent playable condition with no dead spots.
