Seller's description

For Sale: 2012 Fender MIJ Japan TL52-SPL ’52 Telecaster Micawber Blonde w/ Tweed HSC Up for sale is a 2012 Fender MIJ Japan TL52-SPL ’52 Telecaster in Blonde, complete with a non-original tweed hard-shell case. This is a very cool and increasingly hard-to-find Fender Japan model built in the style of the iconic Micawber Telecaster. With its ash body, one-piece maple neck, black single-ply pickguard, and unique pickup configuration, it captures the look, feel, and attitude of one of the most recognizable Telecaster styles ever. Fender Japan nailed the vintage vibe on these, and they continue to be highly regarded for their consistency and craftsmanship. Condition This guitar is in very good condition (8.5/10). It shows light scratches, dings, and some wear to the pickguard from the original protective film. Please review all photos carefully for the most accurate representation of condition.

It has also been recently professionally set up and is ready to go. The non-original tweed hard-shell case is included.
