Fender 69 Telecaster Thinline 2007 Black Semi-Hollow 5.5-pound Tele! 08759

Description (More pics below)
This is a 2007 Fender 69 Telecaster Thinline re-issue made in Mexico in black finish in excellent playing and cosmetic condition. Semi-hollow body with F-hole--super light at 5 pounds, 10 ounces!

Condition
Overall very clean shape. Imperfections include a couple marks near the neck plate and some paint missing on the upper rear edge, which was sanded by previous owner to make it look more like a relic mark. Frets are in good condition with plenty of life left. Some mild grooving on the lower frets. The pickup selector has been changed to a 4-position. I haven't yet determined what the extra position is for.

Features
— Semi-hollow mahogany body w/ maple neck
— Chunky U-shape neck w/ 7.25” radius & vintage frets
— Vintage style ashtray bridge & “F” tuners

Sound & Playability
These Mexican made 69 Thinlines are known to have some of the best feeling Telecaster necks you can find. Sonically, the pickups provide a lot of Tele tones but the semi-hollow gives a warmer sound than a normal Tele. Amazing breakup tones and sparkling cleans. NO case. (I do a full setup and expert packing: info at bottom of listing.) Thanks!

Guitar Setup
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. 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 15 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 "Still Kickin - How to Pack a Guitar" you will find it. Thanks.

About Me
My store is a one-person small business that has been selling used guitars and basses for 15 years now. I do a basic setup and cleaning on every instrument I sell, so depending on workload it may be 1-2 business days before your guitar ships. When it arrives you can depend on it being, clean, set up, and securely packed. Check my feedback for confirmation. Thanks!
