Here we have a stunning Fender Telecaster 1963 electric guitar - original „pre-CBS“. It's a real player's instrument that was refinished to natural finish years ago.
Fender electric guitars from before 1965 are probably the most legendary electric guitars in the world. Leo Fender began producing these guitars for the general public in 1954. Production up to 1965 (pre-CBS phase) was carried out under very high quality controls, in small quantities and with the best materials. As a result, these guitars are very popular with players and collectors.
This Fender Telecaster 1963 electric guitar was built in 1963 and played a lot. Years ago, the neck was refretted and the entire guitar was refinished and restored.
Let's talk about the parts in detail:
- original neck (date June 1963) and original tuners, refretted and refinished
- Original body sanded down to natural wood and re-lacquered
- original bridge pickup
- Reissue neck pickup (GFS Vintage Telecaster Alnico)
- Potentiometer dated 1963
- Replacement striking board
- aged bridge
It is a player's guitar and not suitable for collectors. Over the years the guitar has been played a lot and the above mentioned modifications were necessary due to wear and tear or malfunction.
This Fender Telecaster 1963 electric guitar has recently been adjusted and checked - it now plays great, with a low action and a straight neck.
