Up for sale, a 2008 Fender Telecaster Thinline 72 vintage reissue model TN72 in excellent, 100% original condition and in perfect working order. This Crafted in Japan Tele was produced exclusively for the Japanese domestic market and is uncommon outside of its country of origin.
Boasting a Wide Range humbucker design more tonally faithful to the originals than many other Fender reissues of the era, this guitar is fat and full-sounding while still retaining a distinctive, sweet top end character and percussive cut. The ash body provides a certain midrange punch, and the semi-hollow construction adds an inherent warmth and openness to the sound. This Tele weighs 6lbs 13oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mikes Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and spot-on intonation.

The gloss Natural finish highlights dynamic bearclaw figuring in the ash body on top, and there is a UV tanline from a band sticker (The Metros) at the bass-side upper bout on top. Cosmetic wear is limited to light buckle rash central to the back, a few small nicks and chips along the lower bout perimeter, and a handful of pinhead-sized dings on top. The neck profile retains its smooth gloss, with a couple shallow marks along the profile length that have no impact on playability.
A modern Fender padded gigbag is included.
