Seller's description

This is a 1987 E series Fender Contemporary Black Faced Telecaster HSS with Kahler Trem Unit, Sierra Spruce Metallic in fabulous Condition just the tiniest of marks and they are in the pics for you to see. Nothing much really, when this beauty is 34 years old. This is 'THE' supreme Factory produced Telecaster..

The Japanese Pickups are Crisp and Clear and articulate, not to mention powerful.
