1973 or 74 Fender Telecaster

(Pots date to 1973)


~7.5 LBS

This guitar plays excellent, the neck is stamped with Herb G a legendary neck shaper at fender during that era. the fretboard is rolled perfectly and just fits in your hand perfectly.

The guitar was originally a bigsby tele but I swapped it out for a standard bridge and plugged the holes. I have the original bigsby, bridge and saddles, plus a mastery bridge that came on it.


Lots replaced. But still have most original parts:

- tuners replaced with vintage Kluson, still have 70s white button tuners that came on it

- refretted with JESCAR Jumbos still have a ton of life in them and no dead spots.

- pickups, unoriginal to guitar, but I found an original 1968 tele bridge pickup that sounds killer. Neck is a Tone Specific 1955

- finish is original on body and neck

- replaced pots and switch, but have originals + original control plate.

- bridge is unoriginal allows top loading or string through.

- original hard shell case included.

- 1974 tele warranty/owners manual from original owner

Lmk if you have any questions. Thanks for looking!
