Seller's description

Up for sale, a 1978 Fender Telecaster in excellent condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case. This quintessential ‘70s Telecaster features an ash body, maple neck with dark rosewood fingerboard and U-shaped profile carve, and the original pickup pair. Weighing 9lbs, this Tele offers plenty of sweet, punchy midrange and sustain, with a crisp note attack tempered by the warmth of the rosewood fretboard. The gray bobbin bridge pickup is equal parts chewy twang, midrange push, and taut low end, while the black bobbin neck pickup has a smooth, percussive quality. This Telecaster has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
