1959 Fender Custom Telecaster Sunburst

$1.00

We are thrilled to showcase this 1959 Fender Telecaster Custom in original Sunburst finish! It's a very early example from May 1959 and predates the "Custom Telecaster" peghead decal.  This guitar was sold to a pawn shop in southern California by the supposed original owner in the early 2000s.

Measurements: 7.2 lbs (3.25 kg) total weight. The neck measures 1.66" wide at the nut, 0.80" deep at the first fret, and 0.98" deep at the 12th fret. The neck pickup reads 6.78k ohms and the bridge pickup reads 5.91k ohms.

Fine Print: All guitars ship via FedEx Priority Overnight for domestic sales or FedEx Priority International. I offer a 48 hour approval period beginning on delivery for all sales during which you are welcome to opt for a return as long as the guitar is still in as-sent condition. I do not charge a restocking fee, but any non-refunded payment processing fees, outbound shipping, and return shipping costs are subtracted from the refund in the case of a return.
