2018 Fender MIJ Telecaster Thinline “BiSH” Limited Edition Black Japan Excellent Condition w/ BiSH Pick Set

BiSH sadly disbanded in 2023, but each of the former members remains active in her own career.

This limited-edition model was created in the image of the group once known as the “punk band without instruments.” As it was available exclusively on a made-to-order basis at the time, we believe that only a very limited number were produced.

It is, of course, highly recommended for BiSH fans, but it is also an excellent guitar in its own right and would be a great choice even for those who are not familiar with the group.

This model rarely appears on the market, so we highly recommend it to anyone interested or searching for a truly special guitar.

We will also include this rare and highly collectible BiSH pick set!

This project was realized with the cooperation of Fender, the world-renowned musical instrument manufacturer synonymous with the electric guitar, in response to our idea of creating a guitar for BiSH, the “punk band without instruments.”

How should we express a collaboration with BiSH, a group whose members do not play guitar? After much deliberation, we arrived at the answer: “When you think of BiSH, you think of their sound—and when you think of BiSH’s sound, you think of Kenta Matsukuma.”

We believed that Kenta Matsukuma, the man who created BiSH’s sound, would be able to express the distinctive “BiSH identity” that could not be fully conveyed through design or shape alone. We therefore decided to create the Fender Telecaster Thinline “BiSH” under his production.

We hope you will take this opportunity to own this special guitar, produced exclusively on a made-to-order basis.

It appears to have been stored with very little use and is in excellent condition. The frets have plenty of life remaining, and the protective films are still attached to the pickguard and pickups. However, there may be some minor surface scratches. The guitar has been thoroughly cleaned and given a basic setup.
