This Incredible '54 Telecaster sports a May 1954 Body date and a June 1954 Neck date. This is the same guitar as a blackguard except with a white pick guard and at a 30% discount!!! The neck is highly flamed (wow!). Very clean original condition. Original solder, original frets, original everything!! This is yet another "military guitar" (or similar) where the owner felt the need to etch a social security number or dog tag number into the guitar (see pic). We have had may guitars from that period with markings like this. Comes with original Strap, Ashtray and Red lined Poodle case! Shipping within the CUSA.
