1969 Fender Telecaster Thinline refinished in a rustic see-through Blonde with pearl pickguard. This was the first year of the famed thinline, which is an exceptionally lightweight and balanced instrument. This guitar was designed and also likely built by the legendary German luthier, Roger Rossmeisl, who was put in charge of Fender's Custom Shop for building new hollow body designs. Rossmeisl had previously worked at Gibson and Rickenbacker, where he designed the 4000 and 4001 bass as well as the entire 300 series line of guitars! This guitar is in player's grade condition with the normal refinish and parts upgrades/modifications expected to see over the decades. Our studio has priced it as the least expensive thinline in the world to allow more players an opportunity to enter the vintage guitar market for the price of little more than what a mass produced team-built Custom Shop model sells for these days. The case has some interesting artwork from its history as a British player's guitar.
