Vintage 1974 Fender Telecaster USA Blonde Maple Bass Guitar
I was so pleased to be able to purchase this off of the long term owner, where it had been so well looked after in a studio for decades. It’s stunning! It’s a 1974 Fender Telecaster Bass in original Blonde colour. The serial number dates this to 1973/1974. I originally thought this was from 1973, but when taking the pick guard off and giving it a good clean, the original grey-bottom pickup dates to early 1974. The pots confirm this too – with one dating to the 3rd week of 1974, and the other to the 45th week of 1973. It is absolutely stunning throughout as you can see!
This one is incredibly original, as you can see, with the only thing replaced being the strap buttons! It’s in wonderful condition too, with only a few light marks throughout as you can see. Unfortunately it didn’t come in a case, but it will be packaged very well when shipping worldwide. It’s an absolute beauty and I will be sad to see this one go! Please check out the pictures below as these form part of my description.
