Heavily modified, ultra light (5.2 lbs!) 1969 telecaster thinline previously owned by Nathaniel Rateliff. The neck and body are from 69'- more or less everything else has been replaced. This is a fantastic guitar, and while absolutely not collector grade, it is super robust and ready for another 60+ years of play. It's a stellar platform for modification, and despite its crazy low weight balances on a strap beautifully- both the neck and body are light.

The guitar plays and sounds fantastic- like the lightest blackguard tele you could imagine. The neck has the original finish and is a comfortable late 60's Fender C shape; on the thinner side of medium but by no means a blade. Unclear if it has the original frets, though they are vintage style and have plenty of life left. The tuners may be original to the neck- at the very least they are period-correct Fender and work great. My luthier recently set the guitar up and put Callaham saddles on it.

As far as I know all of the hardware and electronics have been replaced. The pickups are an Onamac Winder's Broadcaster and Seymour Duncan mini-humbucker- they are an excellent pair. Both are in the low 8 ohms range. The electronics include a 3-way switch and CTS pots.

The body has been stripped of all of its finish- it's unclear if it was ever refinished. There is a small crack on one of the f-hole wings (see picture) that was repaired by a previous owner. Also a few of the pickguard screw holes were stripped when I received it. My luthier filled and re-drilled them.

Will ship in a gig bag. Please feel free to ask any questions and happy to provide more pictures.
