  • This looks like excellent value.

    having recently sold a ' boutique' tele

    I found it helped if you state the following.

    Weight
    Radius
    Neck profile
    Frets size.

    I think that's great advice for sellers of lots of guitars, not just Teles (if not clear from model type).  As a potential buyer I find it frustrating how often sellers fail to provide the information I need.  Sellers seem especially coy about disclosing weight.

  • By saying sellers were coy about weight I didn't mean to suggest anything personal FretKing.  I appreciate that many sellers genuinely don't give it a thought.

    Yeah, me too re the weight, be very interested to know what it weighs....problem is that when you live at the other end of the UK it is not practical to go and see/try a guitar but as we all know the weight can dramatically effect the feel and sound.  With a tele the body wood can give a clue to weight (ash/alder) but not always.  Personally I find that teles over a certain weight can sound a little dead and the lighter guitars tend to sound a little more zingy.  Therefore, having all these seemingly irrelevant details can help make up somebody's mind.

    I think you've upgraded the tuners on this guitar?  If so, what were the originals and can they be refitted without extra holes/marks?

    It does look cool, but I suspect your problem might be that the brand is almost unknown in this country.

    I'd leave the ad live and just bump it every couple of weeks. If somebody local to you is looking for a tele in that price range then they may well want to take a look. I sold a guitar on here a couple of weeks ago that I'd kind of given up on being able to sell at a price I was happy with and stopped bumping it - the buyer must have found the listing via google and joined the forum just to make the purchase. I think it's just the case that it could take a while to get a sale on here at the moment, but leaving the option open does no harm.
