See Through Blonde on ash body, VG++. A nice 70’s vintage set up for a player formerly used by a touring guitarist.

Sure, black guard Teles get all the glory but they've gotten a little too pricey lately for most players. Let the Wall Street guys have them. Look to the early white guards because they are great, great guitars. There is nothing like the 56/57 V neck profile and 57's don't sound all that different...

No sales tax for customers outside California. We've brought in some killer pieces of late, and though this 1958 Tele has a couple changes, it might be the most special.  You just don't see many Teles with a 57 v neck! The guitar just has THE sound.  It very much sounds like a 1953 Tele we...

Shown here is our beautiful 1954 Fender Telecaster in Blond!

The Blond finish also became subtly lighter, and this example perfectly shows...
