1978 Fender Telecaster Wine
This clean 1978 Fender Telecaster in original Wine red finish was the pride of a local player's collection until his recent passing. This was the guitar he kept in its original case because it was a little too clean to play.
Make and Model: Fender Telecaster
Year: 1978. Serial S8xxxxx, potentiometer code indicating the 43rd week of 1977.
Specifications: total weight = 8lbs 3oz. Neck dimensions are 1 5/8" nut width, first fret neck depth = .88", 12th fret neck depth = .97".
Condition: Excellent! This Telecaster shows very little playing wear. There is one bump in the finish on the body in the forearm area.

Playability: Excellent! This guitar plays like new! I'm confident you'll love playing this killer 1978 Fender Telecaster.
