Left Handed, Lefty 1963/1964 Fender Tele, Pre-CBS, 100% Original, EXC!
This is a factory Left Handed 1963/64 Fender Tele, Blonde finish, Brazilian Rosewood Fingerboard, 100% Original, comes with an early 1970s Fender case.
Pre-CBS lefty Teles with rosewood boards are hard to find – much rarer than the Strats! It has the Spaghetti logo, clay dots, single-ply white guard, double-line Kluson tuners, moderate wear on the body with some buckle wear through the wood on the back.
It plays really well and you can actually bend the strings easily on this one. It has some mild fret wear, mainly on the first 3 frets. This Tele has the vintage deep-rhythm wiring, but the 3-way switch does hold the in-between neck and bridge PUP setting well. The Tele has a great weight at 7 lbs, 3 oz.
This guitar has been looked over by my longtime guitar tech, Scott Freilich, of Top Shelf Music.
Comes with an early 70s Fender case(first case Fender issued after the 67-72 tail logo case).
