Other: A 2014 Fender Custom Shop 1959 Telecaster has arrived.With a 9.5" fingerboard radius, vintage-tall frets, a lightweight two-piece ash body, a natural-colored finish, and an NOS (New Old Stock) finish, this is believed to be a Team-Built Custom model with Japan-exclusive specifications, originally planned by the domestic distributor at the time.Upon inspecting the controls, no unusual traces of soldering were found, so it appears to be in original, solder-free condition. It is in very beautiful condition with no signs of heavy use, so we would normally rate it as Grade A; however, there is some damage to the finish. One of these is a dent (length: approx. 7 mm, width: approx. 5 mm) accompanied by finish damage at the tip of the neck pocket on the 1st string side of the body top.However, there doesn’t appear to be significant damage to the wood itself; it seems the dent is primarily affecting the finish. Also, if you look closely, you can observe the layers from the surface down: the topcoat, wood filler and intermediate coat, and the primer layer with rosin-blocking treatment. However, since it’s a natural finish, it may be difficult to notice depending on the viewing angle.The second issue is a dent accompanied by paint peeling on the side of the headstock tip; however, when viewed from the front, few users are likely to notice it.Although this instrument is entering its 12th year, it features a 1950s-spec pickguard (Bakelite single-piece material with a clear lacquer finish) with very few pick scratches, and shows no signs of heavy use—making it a rare find in such excellent overall condition.
