USED 1972 Telecaster Thinline Olympic White Refinish [04]

1972 Fender Telecaster Thinline Olympic White is now in stock!

The Telecaster Thinline was introduced in the middle of 1968, following the popularity of hollowbody electric guitars.
Ash body with F-hole on the 6th string side and chamber construction, maple neck, and black "TELECASTER" logo on the head.

The head has a black logo "TELECASTER THINLINE PAT.2,573,354 3,143,028", F-stamped 3-point joint plate, serial number, 3-ply pearl pickguard, and two Fender original wide-range humbuckers, It appears to be a shortly after 1972 spec change.

Neck date is "3 JUL 72 B."
The pot date has solder on it, so it was not readable, but it is believed to have been replaced.
The pickguard has been replaced and is only held in place in 3 places, probably because the screw positions were not aligned. Original pickguard is included. Other screws are missing.
The pickups have not had their covers removed, and the wires and other parts are judged to be original.
The color is Olympic White, which was one of the custom color lineup at that time, and natural/black is painted on the bottom. The paint has been burnished to give it the appearance of having been used in the past.

The fretboard was originally low, but there is about 50% remaining. The frets are low from the beginning, but there is about 50% left. The guitar can be played without any sound jamming, but there are marks on the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd strings where the strings have been pressed, and they are not high enough to be rubbed together. There is a felt on the side of the neck pocket on the 6th string side to prevent the center from shifting.
