Fender Pink Paisley Telecaster 1968

From the listing

Seller's description

An original Pink Paisley finish Telecaster with a neck dated 1968, featuring a laminated maple lacquer neck. This rare model, produced in limited quantities for a brief period in the late 1960s, has a distinctive look that, along with the Blue Flower model, symbolizes the era. Because of its unique body finish, which differs from standard models, surface cracks are common. While many examples today show peeling or chipped finishes, this one, though cracked, has no peeling and remains in good condition. The reddish hue of the finish is also relatively well preserved, making this a valuable piece. The frets are vintage-style and have been refretted, offering good playability. While some parts, like electrical components, have been replaced due to wear, the pickups remain original. The tuners and bridge were replaced at one point but have since been restored to their original condition. Approximately 70% of the frets remain, and the neck shows no noticeable warping or twisting, maintaining a nearly straight profile. The truss rod has ample room for adjustment. Electronics are in good condition with no scratchy knobs. The action is set low, making this a highly playable vintage instrument. Other replaced parts include: 2 pots, switch, jack, nut, frets, knobs, high-pass capacitor, and some screws. 3.70kg Original hard case included.
