Beautiful MIJ Telecaster Custom w/ Black on Black Finish.

Based on the serial, made at the Fujigen Factory between '92 and '93.

This instrument is being sold from my personal collection.

Beautiful black finish.

Classic 70s appointments, including Custom 4-knob configuration & Widerange Humbucker in the neck.

Steel saddles.

3-ply Black/White/Black guard.

The bridge pickup was recently rewound by Lindy Fralin. They did a fantastic job and it sounds comparable in every way to other original MIJ bridge pickups I have in my collection. This is a sought after flat-pole bridge pickup akin to "golden age" teles.

Maple neck w/ Maple Fingerboard.
Beautiful open sound to match its gorgeous looks.

Like all MIJ Fender instruments I've ever played - the build quality, materials, construction, and attention to detail are fantastic. This instrument will be a life-long companion if treated well. For price to quality ratio, it is my opinion there is nothing better.

There may be some subtle scratchiness throughout the electronics, but nothing that would affect playability.

There are visual imperfections across the instrument's finish - wear on the fingerboard, scratches on the pickguard, dust, dirt, checking, scratches, knicks, dings, marks, and dents on the finish throughout. Please see pictures for details.

There is some significant pitting/flattening/play wear on the frets. This is most noticeable between frets 1 and 12.

Please do not purchase this instrument if you are seeking perfection.

I have done my best to capture the instrument and any visual imperfections accurately - if you are concerned with condition and want to see more photos - please reach out to me before purchasing and I will be happy to send them your way.

A non-original soft shell case will be included for shipping purposes. It is in fair condition.

This instrument will be packed well and shipped safely.

If you have no knowledge of MIJ Fender instruments I highly recommended watching the Five Watt World Short History video on Fender Japan, it's extremely entertaining, interesting, and enlightening as to the history and quality of these instruments.

Thanks for looking! If you have any questions please do not hesitate to reach out before purchasing and I will be very happy to help.
