Longshot - FT MIM Classic 50s Fender Tele, white blonde

[MaxRossell]

Preston Lancs. based

No cash, only trades, for:

Either: A Fender MIM 72 Deluxe Tele in FSR Olly White only (very specific, yeah, and I know they're more new than the 50s Tele, but they ain't more second hand) I'll also consider the Roadworn version if you want.

OR (drumroll)

Some kinda Jap Les Paul copy thang, Tokai, Greco, that kind of deal.

My guit is an all-stock MIM 50s Classic Fender Telecaster in white blonde. Oddly, although the thing is mostly mint, there are some wear spots on the fretboard, thru to the wood, around frets 2, 3 and 4. They are legit, not some half-assed relic attempt. The guitar is about ten years old. I can supply photos.

It's currently got a 50s Roadworn pickguard on it (the white relic'd one) but I'll throw in the original parchment one if you prefer. The parchment one is shielded, as are all the cavities (it's a real nice job, too).

Fender Deluxe gigbag included. Will ship, and so on,or you can collect. I don't drive but I can get lifts if need be.

I would rather not add cash, but might be able to stretch to a little.

Have to be a Japanese lp? Would a Korean grassroots (esp) in honeyburst in case with toneriders and upgraded tuners tempt you? In Devon but willing to courier

[MaxRossell]

Cheers dude!

I'll try to get some sent tonight from my phone, no pc at home at the moment. I got it from a guy that brought it back from travelling in Japan, I had the frets dressed and levelled and the nut cut at Mansons and swapped out the pups and tuners, couple chips in headstock that I'll photo but it's a beaut! Had been planning to sell really but my lp obsession moved to teles somewhat :-P think if you google g-lp50 it should link it - says limited model on the headstock as per Edwards and ESP

[MaxRossell]

Nice one dude. Can you tell me which TR pups they were, and also what kind of tuners there are on there now? Also how heavy is it? I like heavyish guitars.

Cheers!

Think it was an alnico 2 bridge and alnico 4 neck but need to check boxes to make sure it was that way round, nice weight to it though, couldn't say exactly but will try it on the scales tonight. Comparable with my signature str1 weight wise at least
