1952 Fender Telecaster Blackguard, this is a body only refin. With clean blackguard prices now at $60-70k, here’s a more reasonable chance at a mostly original one for half. When I got the guitar, it had a horrible red homemade finish job; sent it to lays to get a proper body refinish/relic to match the orignal finished neck. It’s a little more butterscotch blonde in person, but definitely on the lighter side color wise. The good news is all the important bits are original. All original electronics with the exception of the dark circuit being removed and the neck pickup being rewound. This bridge pickup is absolutely magical. It’s been refretted and has a new nut], the bridge is a repro.
