Up for sale is a beautiful, highly resonant 1982 Fender American Telecaster in a classic Sunburst finish, complete with its original plastic molded hardshell case.

This instrument was built at the historic Fullerton, California plant during the final years of the CBS era. It features the classic tight focus, fast percussive attack, and punchy midrange presence that makes these early '80s models incredible rock and alternative tracking tools.

Originality & Modifications:
This guitar was sold to me as entirely stock and original, and it remains that way with only one minor, non-invasive exception: the top guitar strap pin near the neck has been replaced. Aside from that single button, everything else is exactly as it left the Fullerton factory: original pickups, unmolested factory solder joints, pots, electronics, 6-saddle bridge setup, tuners, and finish.

Condition & Playability:
The guitar is in fantastic shape for a 40+ year old vintage instrument. It shows honest player wear, including one noticeable finish nick on the lower front edge of the bass bout (see detailed photo). There are no structural issues whatsoever."
