Nowadays, the original 60s custom Telecaster is disappearing from the market worldwide. When you search, all you find are vintage-style models or replicas. Do you feel like your opportunities to get your hands on the real thing are limited? "If I'm going to get one, I want a real one with history behind it." It's only natural to think so. Having a guitar that you can play with confidence on stage, rather than just adding it to your collection, is the ultimate status symbol for a guitarist. This 1966 Custom Telecaster is the one to satisfy that desire. It was produced when Leo Fender was still with the company, and retains pre-CBS specifications. The Transition logo, thick headstock, round rosewood fingerboard, 3-ply pickguard, spiral saddles, and the rich tone of the lacquer finish all prove its authenticity. The binding is peeling and the exterior shows signs of battle, but that's what makes this guitar so valuable. The dry sound retains the core of a Telecaster while emitting a warm midrange, and the core does not waver even when distorted. The frets and nut have been replaced at our shop, so it is ready for immediate use on-site. A rare vintage item that satisfies both the desire to own and practicality. The original custom Telecasters made in the 1960s are extremely rare to begin with, and there are almost no examples available that have been properly adjusted for playability. If you miss this opportunity now, you never know when you'll get another one. Experience for yourself the thrill of playing a genuine vintage instrument on stage. Owning this 1966 Custom Telecaster is more than just a purchase; it's an inheritance of special history.
