Condition
This Telecaster is a total bargain as it has lots of playwear including bumps and dings.
The neck is covered in lacquer checking which looks pretty cool and is surprisingly smooth to play. There is one or two nicks on the back of the neck as shown.
There are a few chips in the finish on the edges of the body both front and back, most notably near the jack.
The frets have some fret wear on the first few frets.
The electrics have been tested and working perfectly
