Click any image to see it full size
YOU ARE BIDDING ON A 100% AUTHENTIC AND GRUHN CERTIFIED 1951 FENDER TELECASTER BODY REFINISHED WITH PATCHED BAKELITE PICKGUARD WITH ORIGINAL SCREWS, ORIGINAL STRAP BUTTONS, AND ORIGINAL INPUT CUP. THE BODY IS DATED 11-5-51 AND HAS BEEN RE-FINISHED BY J. W. BLACK WHO IS ONE OF THE TOP FENDER AUTHORITIES ON THIS PLANET (GOOGLE J. W. BLACK FENDER GUITAR AND SEE FOR YOURSELF) SO NEEDLESS TO SAY THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST REFIN AND RELIC JOBS YOU WILL EVER SEE. THE BODY HAS BEEN ARTIFICALLY AGED WITH FINISH CHECKING AND HAS RELIC WEAR. THERE WAS A ROUTE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BODY AND ROUTED BAKELITE PICKGUARD FOR A SINGLE COIL PICKUP AND THE BODY HAS BEEN FILLED BY J. W. BLACK AND IS THE ABSOLUTE FINEST ROUTE REPAIR I HAVE EVER SEEN. YOU CAN SPOT THE ROUTE REPAIR IN THE PHOTOS IF YOU LOOK REALLY CLOSE BUT IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE. THE BAKELITE PICKGUARD HAS BEEN PATCHED AND IS 99% UN-NOTICABLE EXCEPT FOR A BARELY VISIBLE OUTLINE OF THE SINGLE COIL PICKUP. IT HAS BEEN REPAIRED SO WELL THAT YOU WON'T BELIEVE IT (J. W. BLACK IS SIMPLY ONE OF THE BEST AND IT'S FORTUNATE THAT HE EVEN AGREED TO DO THE WORK ON THIS GUITAR). THERE ARE TWO SMALL SCREW HOLES IN THE NECK POCKET THAT HAVE BEEN FILLED AND OTHER THAN THAT THERE ARE NO OTHER ISSUES. THIS BODY WITH PICKGUARD IS STILL VERY VALUABLE EVEN WITH THE REPAIRS AND THERE IS NO WAY YOU COULD BE DISAPPOINTED WITH IT FOR THIS PRICE. I ALSO HAVE SEVERAL PHOTOS OF THE STEP BY STEP REPAIR AND DAILY CORRESPONDENCE WITH J. W. BLACK DURING THE REPAIR/RESTORE PERIOD AND I WILL INCLUDE ALL OF THIS WITH THE SALE. WE HAVE A GRUHN CRTIFICATE FOR THE GUITAR AND WILL INCLUDE A COPY OF THAT AS WELL AND WE ALSO HAVE THE ORIGINAL SALES RECIEPT FROM 1951 FOR THE GUITAR AND WILL INCLUDE A COPY OF THAT. YOU WILL HAVE MORE DOCUMENTATION THAN YOU WILL EVER NEED. WE ALSO HAVE SEVERAL OTHER PIECES FOR THIS GUITAR UP FOR SALE ON OUR EBAY SITE INCLUDING THE NECK, BRIDGE PLATE, CONTROL PLATE, NECK PLATE, PICKUPS, ETC. PLEASE EMAIL US WITH ANY AND ALL QUESTIONS AND WE WILL ANSWER THEM PROMPTLY. IF YOU FEEL THAT THIS ITEM HAS BEEN MIS-REPRESENTED IN ANY WAY THEN YOU MAY RETURN IT FOR A FULL REFUND.
