I bet it would sound really good with some P-90's.


hehehe...

for 2 grand it's on the heavy side, 9 lbs for a tele?

yeah, sorry, Killjoy here. It is badass and would be nice to have

this is one of those fenders that, if i were a collector, i'd comb the globe to find a good example.

it does seem on the heavy side and i have no idea what the book value is but it's fun to look at regardless.

oh definately. I wasn't trying to be a killjoy. It's rare as hell to begin with It'd be nice to have the $2300 or so to throw around on cool stuff like that.

I'd like to be ZZTop's personal shopper.

i'm reduced to window shopping from here on it. i've sold my dot and biscuit so i'm down to 5 electrics, 2 acoustics and a bass. still entirely too many but i can't part with anything else.

That's a beautiful guitar! I bet it's got some beef to it at 9 pounds!
It might be worth learning to play left handed for.
Or stringing it hendrix style and playing upside down.

I bet it'll go for 2800 bucks , and might not be worth it now, but keep it original and it would be an investment to hang on to.



hmm,,,,I just looked up 1975 lefty tele deluxe on google:

Looks familiar!

i'd love originals of:

a tele deluxe
a jaguar (with bound neck)
a jazzmaster (with bound neck)
a mustang (with a C neck) (good luck)

I'll keep my eyes peeled!

There's a lot of fraud out there in the vintage market for fenders now! So many "made up" necks and bodies and "aged" looking pieces on Ebay. It's like art fraud.

At least Gibsons are one piece and had a little better handle on serial numbers so it's a bit tougher to duplicate,, but that's coming too, I'm sure, now that a lot of them are going for 50 grand.

I can't believe I don't own a Tele right now. I just ordered stock tele pickups from Fralin yesterday. I'll have to put one together.

Ooohhhhh... I am a lefty too.
That thing is in immaculate condition for a 30 year old guitar, almost too good to be true.
Now the hard part...... the 2 large that it will probably go for.
