*Possible trade agreement reached, on hold subject to the usual*

*£2200 delivered or will consider trades against Gibson or Fender USA guitars with cash my way. A 70s Les Paul Deluxe of particular interest. Possibly Vox and Fender amps...*

1970 Fender Telecaster electric guitar with factory Bigsby, made in USA, ser. no. 284138, refinished tastefully in a beautiful translucent blonde. Plays like a dream, and in good condition - a truly fine instrument. Checked over and verified by Gardiner Houlgate at an auction back in 2016. Aquired by me off the very fine Jerk Moans aka Mark Jones on this very forum.

All original aside from 80's pots and some basic rewiring - electronics in good order. At some point the body was routed for a Humbucker in the neck position, but original the original pick ups now refitted. In incredible condition for its age. Comes with a later period moulded Fender hard case.

A vintage blonde tele with bigsby is like a high class escort. You go your whole life without one, the BOOM. There are two of them in your room, you're down 5k and your wife is threatening to walk.

Selling this fine tele because I simply cannot afford to keep two, but I wish I could

    Would you be interested in a Fender Deluxe Strat 2013 in sunburst plus (quite a lot of) cash?
