Bruce Springstein's Telecaster.

He's retiring, he uses too much coke on the road and nobody knows it but you. He's your godfather.
Back in those days, everyone knew that if you were talking about Destiny's Child, you were talking about Beyonce, LaTavia, LeToya, and Larry.

He takes off the pickguard and a gallon of sweat pours out. Also, somehow, a fish.

Holy cow, I still don’t have this guitar. UPS doesn’t seem to like when I tell them to drop it off at the depot. They keep trying my house when I’m at work.

Ok here it is!

Some very good guesses, thanks for joining in the fun, but it is an American Vintage 1964 Telecaster reissue! I’m blown away by this telecaster. I’ve been after one of these models in white blonde since the AV series came out in 2012.

The previous owner had the neck changed from 7.25” to 9.5” and refretted with slightly larger than vintage wire. The pickups have been changed to Lollars and the saddles have been switched to the intonated brass type.

There’s lots of great checking. Too hard to photograph! Anyway, I’m super stoked and happy with it.

That’s one beautiful Telecaster!! White blonde is my favorite color for one. I have a black guard on mine (mine is just a lacquer ‘50s Classic) right now, though I like the stock white one too.

The cool thing about fretless is you can hit a note...and then renegotiate.
