Fender FSR Baja Telecaster Classic Player Vegas Gold Mint! Tele 96464
This is a 2014 Fender FSR (Factory Special Run) Baja Telecaster in Vegas Gold finish in amazing condition. They only made a short run of this guitar for one year and now they are very hard to find. Produced by the Fender Custom Shop, it has V-shaped neck, 50s styling, Broadcaster bridge pickup and Custom Twisted neck pickup. Four-way switching and S-1 switch make for a ton of tones at your fingertips--all listed at bottom, but there are parallel, in series, out-of-phase, etc, options possible. This baby is super clean--not a scratch or ding on it. Frets show only mild wear. I've sold several of these in the past and they go quickly! Weight is a comfortable 7 pounds, 12 ounces. Just set up and re-strung. (Details on my setups and packing at bottom of listing.) No case. Thanks for looking.

Guitar Setup
My setup on guitars includes new strings (9s or 10s depending on what the nut is cut for), overall polish, cleaning any gunk off fingerboard, oiling neck, and polishing frets when necessary. I spray out any pots that are noisy. I turn the truss rod (if necessary) and set string height at low-to-medium action depending on string buzz present. Since setup is highly subjective you may need to get it set to your particular needs by your personal luthier. I don't claim to be a trained luthier, but I'm able to set guitars/basses for a reasonable out-of-box experience and have had very few complaints. If you're looking for the perfect setup on a used guitar, please expect to take it to a trained luthier who is familiar with your individual playing style and preferences. ps: basses get the same setup minus the new strings. Thanks!
Packing
I use quality boxes, thick bubble wrap, and peanuts to pack guitars. I have a very high rate of successful guitar and bass shipping (meaning few damaged instruments). I have been doing this 10 years and know how to pack well--with or without a hard case. I wrote a detailed story with photos on how I pack a guitar, which you can find on my StillKickinMusic site blog. If you Google "THERE IN ONE PIECE...How to Pack a Guitar" you will find it. Thanks.
