Used Fender Telecaster '52 Reissue Natural Gloss
Fender Tele, '52 reissue, made in Japan 1997-8, natural gloss over ash. This is one of Fender Japan's high-end models; these fetched a premium price back in the 90s. The factory-fitted Texas Special pickups sounds awesome: heaps of cut and bite paired with huge body, warmth and low-end. The neck is a soft-V, which feels amazing and natural in the hand. The grain on the ash really shines through, it's a seriously stunning body that'll have you drooling from every angle. This is a proper Tele!
Model: Fender Telecaster '52 Reissue (TL52-80TX)
Made: Japan, 1997-8 (serial A012912)
Finish: natural gloss, single ply black guard
Body: lightweight ash
Neck: maple, maple board, mild V profile
Mods: none
Weight: 3.4kg
Pickups: Fender USA Texas Specials
Case: cool faux-leather gig bag
Cosmetic condition notes: Minor cosmetic wear. There's a handful of minor dimples on the body but nothing noticeable. Chrome parts are in good condition with only minor wear. Guard has some minor play-wear but is sitting flush and looks fine. Overall: excellent condition (9/10)
Playing condition notes: Action is low, neck is straight, intonation is good, truss rod works. The frets are in good shape, there's a little wear but heaps of life in them, 8/10. The neck really does feel excellent, this is a monster Tele!
