jamesoliver1234

I'm selling my 69/70 telecaster ..

when i bought this i was told it was original dakota red but sadly its a refin ...dave dearnley has told me the original white finish is under there and could be brought back..

the pickups are originals
the pots
the tuners 
original ashtray

the guitar sounds really good .... id say it needs a refret the price reflects this 

it comes with an hard case but sadly not original.

the guy i bought it off bought it in early 70s and used it in club bands for many years

id like £2500 firm on this no offer or trades im based in south wales but travel alot for gigs 

ive attached a few videos of the guitar inc a review and demo

He did say if there’s a lockdown 3, so you know what you have to do

It'll be like the start of the Grand National when the shout goes out...

If James does relist it, he can add £1500 to the price and it'd still be great value

Does this make you in favour of lockdowns now?

jamesoliver1234

No I need to gig 5 times a week again ....but it we loose another 150 gigs that’s booked something will have to go

Fingers crossed no more lockdowns.

Yep, I understand that and it’s a sobering reminder of how lockdowns really affect us.  It was just a quip referencing Chris’s anti-lockdown stance

It's a real bummer being in a position where you have to sell. Fingers crossed James that gigging life gets back to normal for you asap mate.

Bloody guitar prices went up in lockdown and there's no point in having a guitar you can't gig
