The Soul of ‘72, Reimagined in Japan. A high-quality reissue of the classic 1972 Telecaster Thinline, featuring a semi-hollow ash body with an F-hole, a maple neck and fingerboard with a pair of Fender Japan Wide Range Humbuckers. Lightweight and resonant, it delivers the warm, open tone these guitars are known for with plenty of clarity and dynamic response; perfect for indie, funk, rock, and more. This guitar is in great played condition. There is some fret wear, mostly in the lower positions but the guitar plays cleanly with no issues. Hardware shows light tarnishing from age, and there’s one noticeable ding on the top front of the horn. The body has a few gentle marks and impressions, along with some surface swirling consistent with regular use. Nothing affects playability or structural integrity. This is a solid, well-cared-for instrument with honest cosmetic wear. A fantastic example of Fender Japan’s craftsmanship during one of its most respected eras. If you’re looking for a vintage-style Thinline Tele with serious tone, mojo, and build quality, this one’s a great find.
