Fender American Vintage Reissue 52 Telecaster butterscotch blonde in Meadowbank, Cheshire for sale

This guitar is in almost as new condition with only a very minor chip to the lacquer finish (see photos). It's normal for this guitar to wear and age as the finish was produced as it would have been in the 50s with a thin lacquer finish. I've changed out the bridge for a Gotoh modern version (a la Keith Richards) and changed the vintage pickups for gold lace sensors which sound a lot smoother when overdriven and are of course noiseless. I see them as an improvement but I realise some prefer the vintage setup so I'm including the original bridge and pickups in the sale. It's a straightforward job to swap them out. Comes with a very nice period correct tweed case with crushed velvet lining and all case candy, including a vintage leather strap. No swaps and local pickup only please.
