USED Fender / 1968 Telecaster Bass [11]

The first Fender reissue model Telecaster Bass released in 1968 is in stock.
Thick body with one set of single coil pickups. Telecaster-style headstock, string-through-body design with two-saddle bridge, large chrome bridge and pickup covers, pickguard covering the entire upper bout, and a row of controls on a Telecaster-style chrome plate. The controls are lined up on a Telecaster-style chrome plate.
The vintage quality of the instrument can be seen in the damage and deterioration that can be felt over time. This is a good one as an interior decoration for bass lovers.

Pickup fence and bridge cover are missing.
Pickups have been replaced with Seymour Duncan SCPB-12 and string guides have been added.
The pegs, condenser, and frets have been replaced. The pots are original.
There is a hole where the bridge was replaced. There is a crack on the neck joint.
There are scratches, dents, and rust on the metal overall, including sticker marks and scrapes on the paint.
The neck is twisted and wavy, and there is chattering when played hard overall.
