- Description
- Guitarchives
Fender Thinline Tele, crafted in Japan 97-00, natural gloss over ash. With this in your hands, it's totally understandable why these are so desirable. The slim neck is perfectly comfortable, combined the light body you never feel like you're having to work hard. The Wide Range pickups offer a balanced tone and moderate output; the tone is thick, warm and bright and very easy to love. The tight grain on the back looks amazing, it's a nice contrast with the wider more figured ash on the front; the natural gloss really lets it shine. What a babe!

Cosmetic condition notes: mild finish wear. There's a few little dimples around the front of the body, nothing that's deep or more than 1mm across. There's a couple of little chips on the top side above the F-hole, as well as some scuffs and chips on the bottom near the strap pin. There's some play wear on the maple board. Overall: good condition (7/10).
Playing condition notes: Action is low, neck is straight, intonation is good, truss rod works. The frets are in reasonable shape, there's a little wear but there's life in them, 6.5/10. An easy player, and sounds awesome!
