Up for sale, a 2018 Fender Traditional ‘60s Telecaster FSR Bigsby in near-mint, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with hangtags. This uncommon “Made in Japan” Telecaster is a discontinued Factory Special Run (FSR) model, produced in limited quantities, featuring a custom color California Blue finish. And unlike more recent Fender Japan Bigsby-equipped Tele runs, this model features a genuine Bigsby USA B5F (Fender "F") vibrato tailpiece.
The Vintage-Style single coils have sparkle and cut in the bridge position and more warmth and percussive cut when toggling towards the neck on the three-way pickup selector. This Traditional ‘60s Telecaster weighs 8lbs 6oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
