About this listing
This will be a bittersweet sale for me! I really enjoy this guitar, but I am selling to fund another purchase. Changes/Upgrades:-Hand Carved Bone Nut from Dang Decent Guitars here in Houston-Frets have been leveled and polished-Wiring completely new with brand new components (pots, switch, and output jack) (every thing is CTS, Pure Tone, Oak Grigsby, etc., quality stuff)-Complete set-up (intonation, action adjustment, neck relief, the works!)-Graph Tech Compensated String Saver Saddles (prevents broken strings and improves intonation)-Switch was changed from 4-way to standard Tele 3-way configuration -JBE Joe Barden Modern Danny Gatton pickups added. Lots of clarity, plenty of output, but very natural and dynamic. Like a great set of single coils with a lot more “beef”.I had planned to keep this guitar for a real long time… but plans have to change sometimes. I know I’m not going to get all the money I put into it back, so I won’t be pricing it outrageously… just fairly. Do a little research on the Classic Player series. It was dreamt up by one of the Custom Shop Masterbuilders. It’s a Made in Mexico version of a guitar they used to do all the time in the Custom Shop.This one dates to 2007. Can you believe how good it looks?Weight is 8.2 lbs From the Fender website:The unconventional Telecaster fan will appreciate the unconventional style of the Classic Player Baja Telecaster. Designed by Fender Custom Shop Master Builder Chris Fleming, it looks like a traditional Tele®, but boasts several mods that transform it into a full-voiced true Classic Player, such as Custom Shop-designed pickups, special tone circuitry and switching, and more.Product SpecsBodyAshBody FinishPolyesterBody ShapeTelecaster®Bridge3-Saddle Vintage-Style Strings-Through-Body Tele® with Brass Barrel SaddlesBridge PickupCustom Shop Vintage-Style Single-Coil Tele®ColorDesert SandConfigurationSSControl KnobsKnurled Flat-TopControlsMaster Volume (S-1™ Switch), Master ToneCountry Of OriginDimensions5.00x15.00x42.00 INFingerboardMapleFingerboard Radius9.5" (241 mm)Fret SizeMedium JumboHardware FinishChromeModel NameClassic Player Baja Telecaster®, Maple Fretboard, Desert SandNeck FinishGloss UrethaneNeck MaterialMapleNeck PickupCustom Shop "Twisted" Single-Coil Tele®Neck PickupCustom Shop "Twisted" Single-Coil Tele®Neck ShapeSoft "V"Number of Frets21Nut MaterialSynthetic BoneNut Width1.625" (41.3 mm)OrientationRight-HandPickguard1-Ply ParchmentPickup ConfigurationSSPosition InlaysBlack DotRefinement Neck MaterialMapleRefinement Neck ShapeV ShapeRefinement PickupsCustom ShopScale Length25.5" (648 mm)SeriesClassic PlayerTruss RodsVintage-Style Butt AdjustTuning MachinesVintage-Style
