A well-preserved and road-seasoned example of a 1974 Fender Telecaster in black, showing the honest wear of decades of play. This one carries the expected cosmetic scars—buckle rash on the back, scattered surface swirls and scratches—but structurally, it's solid and sonically alive. The frets show signs of use but remain fully serviceable, and while the nut sits a touch low, it doesn’t affect playability. No buzzing, no issues. Just classic Tele tone and feel. Recently given a full setup by our in-house technician to keep it stage-ready.
