Fender Telecaster Natural MF Top Refinish, Manufactured 1975?1976 [645155] (08/24)

The Pot DATE indicates 1975; this Telecaster is believed to have been manufactured between 1975 and 1976. The body is ash, the neck and fingerboard are maple, it has a 4-point neck joint, and the tuning pegs are stamped with an gF.h The truss rod is completely loose in the loosening direction. At this time, this has virtually no impact on playability. The guitar will be sold as-is. We have refretted the guitar, replaced the nut, and repaired and refinished the damage on the top of the body. There is noticeable damage on the upper left side of the body where the finish appears to have blistered; the surface feels uneven to the touch. There are scratches, dents, and paint damage on the headstock; scratches, dents, and peeling paint on the back of the neck; and a step has formed at the top of the skirt line. There are scratches and dents on the back and sides of the body; there are signs of repaired paint peeling at the body end; the pickguard has playing scratches; and the metal parts show rust, tarnish, and pitting. There are other signs of wear, such as scuffs and tarnish, but the overall condition is good.
