FS/FT Manson Custom T (Telecaster) One Off - price dropped to £1900 ono

edited February 2018 in Guitars £

This is a rare opportunity to buy a unique early 90's T-Style one off custom order from legendary Devon based builder Hugh Manson at what is now Manson Guitar Works  

My Dad bought this guitar from Hugh at Mansons in the 90’s and I bought it from him so it has always been in the family. 

The guitar still has its original specs with gold Gotoh 510 tuners and Wilkinson tremolo.

I’m not totally sure of the woods used to make this guitar but my Dad recalls that the body is Mahogany capped with a gorgeous and very unique spalted maple top and the neck is maple with a lovely dark rosewood fingerboard. 

There are 2 Seymour Duncan Humbuckers with pots for coil tap options on the humbuckers. 

It is a good condition for a guitar of its age but does have a few dings that are visible in the photos.

Comes with a standard hardcase. 

I’m looking for £1900 but would consider a trade for a Suhr Classic Antique or reasonable offers.  

Collection from Exmouth/Exeter/Devon preferred but would send by courier or drive a reasonable distance to meet.

    I had one made by Hugh in the 90's - very similar to yours only left handed and with Seymour Duncans. It was a great guitar, Wish I hadn't sold it now. GLWS

    Hi @mrdv in case you decide to re-sell, I'd also suggest sticking it on the Muse message board, lot of Manson fans on there as you can imagine, it's not just the 'Mattocasters' that seem to do well on there :)
