Please take this '64 Telecaster Custom away before it finds its way to my house!  It is a showy one, but man - it is just about the coolest!

Delivered as an NOS instrument from the Custom Shop, this 2008 now shows a little age in the light finish checking and a touch of yellowing to the clear coat.  In case you don't know, NOS means New Old Stock, and Fender built these as an option for Relic haters who wanted a nice, clean guitar with Custom Shop quality.  

The guitar is all original with no issues or repairs.  The frets show very little use.  The neck is slim and feels great.  There is room in the truss rod for future neck relief adjustments. 

The original case is loaded with everything that came with the guitar from Fender except for the guitar cable (I assume they put one in there when new).
