1999 Fender Telecaster ‘52 Vintage Reissue TL52-65 Butterscotch w/ V Neck, Japan CIJ
Up for sale, a 1999 Fender Telecaster ‘52 vintage reissue model TL52-65 in near-mint condition and in perfect working order. This “Crafted in Japan” Telecaster was made for the Japanese domestic market and is uncommon outside of its country of origin.
Tonewoods include a light weight ash body and a one-piece maple neck with a V-shaped profile carve, and this Tele weighs 7lbs 8oz. The vintage-spec single coil pickups deliver the iconic tones of the first “Blackguard” Telecasters, with sinewy twang at the bridge and gutsy, smooth chop at the neck. This Telecaster TL52-65 has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
