'52 Butterscotch Telecaster reissue with
Esquire neck

$1,500 or best reasonable offer (NO TRADES)

Up for sale is a beautiful nitrocellulose '52 reissue Butterscotch Telecaster with a fantastic 60th anniversary Esquire neck, and man, is this guitar rock solid!!!

Purchased in the summer of 2007 from the Stratosphere (on eBay), this thing is loaded with great traditional hardware (Grover Deluxe Kluson-style tuners, brass saddles, Fender bridgeplate and neckplate), plus numerous improvements: 4-way Grigsby switch, screw-mounted "Electrosocket" input jack).

As for the pickups, I've installed a Jason Lollar '52 neck pickup (slightly overwound) and a wicked Fender Lace Sensor Red in the bridge. . .this thing easily goes from Tele twang to ZZ Top at the turn of a dial -- it's awesome!

Under the period-correct 5-screw Bakelite pickguard, I have routed the body for a middle pickup to allow for a Nashville/Strat configuration, and while the routing job isn't pretty, the cavity is in the correct location should you desire the option of 3 pickups.

This thing is ridiculously solid! Virtually never out of tune even after lengthy playing time, and the chime rings out forever! The meaty neck and low frets (and wicked set-up action) make for effortless playing -- you just glide up and down this neck, and it feels great in the hand!

I have one reason for selling this: need the money, and one of the toys has to go.

* Please don't ask if I'm interested in a trade -- I'm not. Serious inquiries only. Thanks.
