While we love our mongrel guitars, player's specials, etc, we also seek out the cleanest examples of instruments we can find, like this 1975 Telecaster.I wouldn't say this guitar is in mint condition, but it is pretty close. There is light use evident on the frets, a few marks at the end of the headstock, light wear around the lower edge of the body - all superficial wear showing that someone has played and enjoyed the guitar with great reverence for their beloved guitar.There are no changes, repairs, or issues, and the very nice hardshell case is included.  The original bridge cover is included as well.Mahar's Vintage Guitars is a brick-and-mortar and web-based retailer.

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.
