1956 Fender Esquire (Telecaster) - Blond

All original 1956  Fender Esquire in very good condition for its age. Only minor play-wear, mostly on the backside of the body and neck, the original frets are still in very good shape. The guitar has the nicest neck you can imagine, with a big/-chunky V-shape, the playability is superb! The electronic is all original with untouched solderjoints, the pots are stamped 304.6.20 (20th week of 1956), the neck and body ist penciled 6-56.. Even so Esquires only have one bridge-PU, the tricky "Esquire-circuit" manages 3 tonal different sounds with its 3-way switch, which will not let you miss the neck-PU! Nice strong V-neck profile, very comfortable to play! The guitar has a tiny old cut between the skunk stripe and the headstock which actually is negligible but mentioned for the sake of completeness. It doesn't move and is stable. Comes in orig. Fender tweed case with red plush interior.
