This guitar was an impulse buy. I walked into the Silver Lake Guitars shop, saw this guitar hanging on the wall and was immediately drawn to it. It looked similar to my 1971 Tele except my '71 is a refinish and this was the real thing. I plugged it into some old Fender tweed amp and played it for about 15 minutes before I decided that I wanted it. Having just gotten back from an east coast Kix run the money was no issue so I bought it on the spot. By the next day reality had sunk in and realized I didn't need another Telecaster and I tried returning it, but the shop had a no return policy and the shop owner had already spent the money. So this one's for sale. It's got a dark dense deep grain wood for the body. It's really heavy. As you can tell by the pictures it's pretty beat up. It could use a good set up and a new nut, the low E string buzzes. Other than that it appears to be completely original.
