Fender Road Worn 50s Telecaster Butterscotch Blonde Best Tele Relic Around 04316

Description
This is a 2015 Fender Road Worn Telecaster in a killer Butterscotch Blonde finish. Not all Road Worns are created equal. This one has a nice amount of relic wear without being beat to crap.

This Tele 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 easily. There is even some paint checking in a couple spots (see pics). Very realistic to years of well-loved playing. The electronics, neck, and frets on this are in great condition. It feels and plays like a well-worn pair of blue jeans.

This is the prior (and better) series before the Vinteras. (Don't be fooled by big retailers selling "Road Worn" Telecasters and leaving "Vintera" out of the title. Vintera starts at 2019.). Weight is lighter than most Road Worns at 7 pounds, 0 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.
