By way of update/disclaimer.
THIS GUITAR IS NOT MINT-DEFINITELY HAS SOME SIGNS OF PLAYWEAR-AS DETAILED BELOW
The guitar is described as relic on the COA/Traveller, i would suggest it is at the heavier end of that spectrum.
It seems this guitars previous owner plus admin on the site have be concerned that the amount of "FACTORY DAMAGE" this guitar displays now may differ from the amount of "FACTORY DAMAGE" it left the factory with.
The pictures listed are a mixture of both those i managed to save from the original Fretboard advert i purchased the guitar from which was circa 2 years ago, and those i have taken myself plus a recent video detailing it as closely as possible.
As i do not have pictures of it as it left the makers workbench when brand new i cannot confirm if all marks are factory and which are player wear and tear.
After studying both earlier and later pictures there are some marks on the back upper bout that are more recent wear and tear/damage/relic (delete as you see fit),
I have highlighted these on a picture which is within the dropbox link.
I have also uploaded additional pictures of all areas of relic on the guitar.
This guitar will only be sold collected.

Tag me in when you do. It’s a really nice spec but any buyer is going to want to check all the condition from all angles on an expensive guitar as I’m sure you’d understand. Saves hassle for everyone if the condition is fully understood.
And...you told me you didn't have the original advert's photos to compare, yet they are right there in your Dropbox link.
and i said i didn't have access to the original listing pictures as its been deleted,
Shall I employ a film crew and commission a documentary on the teles life and times?
be a great Netflix night in
I assume anyone following this thread will get the idea this isn’t a mint tele, but just in case
the telecaster is NOT mint
Really interesting one. The custom shop have bashed up a guitar that they made which makes it more valuable than a nos guitar, certainly in their pricing.
EDIT:- Bloody lovely guitar btw
