Used 2013 FENDER “BEGGAR’S BANQUET” TELECASTER serial number MX13387333.

This Mexican-built standard model Telecaster was a limited edition of only 300 guitars built to commemorate the 45th anniversary of the Rolling Stones 1968 album Beggars Banquet. The guitar features the original graffiti “toilet cover” artwork that the record companies refused to release, deeming it too offensive. The back of the guitar shows the famous feast image shot by photographer Michael Joseph. The guitar neckplate is numbered “141” with the ABKCO record company name.

This guitar was originally sold as a package, however some of the “package” items are no longer with the instrument.

*Please note: we do our best giving descriptions of used pieces. We have found it impossible to describe every mark on an instrument or amp that is not in the "mint" category. Also, what's important to you may not be important to someone else. For example, you may say, "I don't care what it looks like as long as it plays or sounds well." Another person may say, "Body cosmetics are very important to me so tell me about every scratch, nick and blemish." So, please ask the questions that are most important to you. If you ask they will be answered. They are free and there's no limit. Additional photos can also be made available.

This is a specific item that is also being offered for sale in our brick & mortar location. It is possible that it has just been sold. Please ask if it is still available before purchasing.

*It is our policy to require a signature on delivery of all musical instruments. Please let us know if you prefer no signature required when ordering or we will automatically require a signature.

If you prefer your item to be sent without a required signature Imperial Guitar and the selected carrier can no longer be responsible for the security of the package once it has been delivered.
