FENDER ROAD WORN 50s TELECASTER w/ Duncan PU Blonde Best TV Relic Around 22694
Description
This is a 2018 Fender Road Worn Telecaster in a rare Butterscotch Blonde finish (see all pics below). First off, "THESE ROAD WORN SERIES ARE NOT ALL CREATED EQUAL." Some of these come with almost no relicing. Others, like this one, look like they've been played for many years.
This Tele is a stunning example--it has nice tasteful paint wear all around the edges. Also, the hardware is nicely softened to a dull glow. The back of the neck is worn down so your hand slides real easy. There is even some faint paint checking in a couple spots. Very realistic to years of well-loved playing. Attention to detail and the little touches are evident on this guitar. The electronics, neck, and frets on this are in great condition. It feels and plays like a well-worn pair of blue jeans.
AND it comes with a Seymour Duncan Hot Rails in the bridge that sounds a lot better than stock--you can get Tele tones, but also a lot more warmth and fatness. It's a $90 pickup. Weight is a very trim 7 pounds, 4 ounces. No case. I do a full cleaning and setup on all guitars. (Details on my setups and packing at bottom of listing.) Thanks!

Guitar Setup
All setups are done by our in-house luthier. Setup 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. We spray out any pots that are noisy, 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. Basses get the same treatment minus the string change. 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.
