USED Fender Japan / TL52-80 Vintage Natural [11]

A high-performance guitar that embodies the quintessential ’52 style, crafted with premium-grade materials.

The Fender Japan TL52-80 is a ’52 Telecaster-style guitar that features a vintage-inspired design with an ash body and one-piece maple neck, while being crafted with the high-quality materials and solid construction characteristic of the 80 series.

Traditional specifications, such as a 7.25R fingerboard and a three-saddle bridge, faithfully reproduce the fast attack and crisp twang characteristic of the 52-style Telecaster. The vintage-style single-coil pickups deliver a natural, easy-to-handle sound without excessive coloration, handling a wide range of tones from clean to crunch.

As a step up from the TL52-70, this guitar excels in tonal resonance and sound balance. It’s easy to play and allows you to fully enjoy the classic appeal of a Telecaster.
While there are some minor scratches, dents, and slight discoloration on some parts, it is in relatively good condition considering its age.
We noticed some slight wear on the frets, so we’ve had them refretted.
The neck is in good condition, and the guitar plays well.
