Description

Fender Telecaster 1964 - Original Factory Blonde finish with added real 1960's nitrate Green Guard. When I bought this guitar it had a non original pickguard on it so I added this cool original green guard to it. Other than the guard its been nicely refretted with slightly larger than stock frets and the neck pickup has been potted otherwise everything else on the guitar is factory original no over spray no extra holes or routes its a cool piece. Guitar weighs 7 lbs 11 ozs. The neck is a little on the chunky size and plays great. Pickups sounds amzing and with the green Guard it has a killer look. Comes in original no logo black case in good used shape.

About Telecaster

The Fender Telecaster, known affectionately as the "Tele," emerged as the first mass-produced solid-body electric guitar, marking a significant milestone in music history. Its straightforward design and innovative sound paved the way for new trends in electric guitar manufacturing and popular music. Since its debut in the 1950s, the Telecaster has been celebrated for its versatility, serving artists across genres from country to jazz, rock, and beyond. Its solid construction, characterized by a single-cutaway body made typically from alder or ash and a bolt-on maple neck, contributes to its distinct, bright, and cutting tone as well as a warm, mellow sound depending on pickup selection. With minor modifications over the years, the Telecaster has remained largely faithful to its original design, featuring two single-coil pickups, a three-way selector switch, and simple volume and tone controls. This enduring design has kept the Telecaster relevant and in continuous production, solidifying its status as a beloved icon in the guitar world.
