SOLD - FS:Farida Alder Tele Body - Body & Neck offer £75 delivered.

Kebabkid

Surf Green Farida Tele body made of alder. Farida's are made in the same factory as the Fender Classic Vibe guitars and quality-wise, sit between the CV series and Fender Mexican guitars.

Weight is just shy of 4lbs
Some natural relicing/dings as shown in pics
Electrics don't seem to be working and I don't know if it's the wiring, jack or pickups, so the price reflects that and this is basically a decent body, brass saddles and scratchplate for a Tele project and if the other odds and ends work for someone or can be fixed, so be it.

I've measured the pocket and appears to be the standard Fender measurements and apparently there's no difference between a Strat and Tele pocket. This tallies with what's shown on this Warmoth link -

Frankly, I'm not surprised as this comes from the same factory as the Classic Vibes.

Width - 2 3/16th" (56mm)

Length - 3" (76mm)

Depth - 5/8" (15mm)

Neck available and advertised separately but I'll do the neck and body for £75 delivered.

PPG please - Looking for £45 plus P&P (need to get a price, insured 1st class from Royal Mail) or can be collected from Wallington, Surrey or Central London but feel free to make a sensible offer

Shape at the end of the pocket is different. Strat is more rounded

Kebabkid

@John_A - pm'd you.

@dean2371 - yep, I can now see that and looking at mine, it suggests it's a Tele pocket.


Thanks for your help

samzadgan

ok mate...yeah that looks like tele pocket with the square edges.

ideally looking for a strat pocket...but not a total loss.

I'll get back to you if i dont find anything.

Do you have a pic of the neck?

@TheGuitarWeasel ; - here you go Ash and it was on another post.

I'll do a good deal on both if you like or maybe a pickup trade.
