SOLD - 1970 Fender Telecaster with factory Bigsby - £2500

JerkMoans

As the title says, 1970 telecaster, refinished at some point in translucent creamy off-white. I've had it a year, just don't play the thing. Not really up for trades as I have something pretty specific in mind, but open to realistic offers. 

Asking for £2,500

Based in London.

Apols: was wrestling with the listing, and trying to figure out how to add a picture...  Thanks for the good luck wishes!

Nice guitar.

Are you based in Golders Green? I think I've seen a few of your ads on Gumtree.... think you had a 1980 Tele J Buckley style for sale recently.

I bought it from that fellow in Golders Green last ?August...  he has a fine array of stuff for sure! I'm a bit further north, in sunny Barnet.

Does he have a shop? He has some nice guitars on gumtree at the moment .

Nope: sells 'em out of his front room!

I think Patrick, from Golders Green, is a member on here.

@JerkMoans that is fine instrument - have a wow on me. If it plays even half as good as it looks it'd be a blessing to own. 

Good look with the sale mate

(I can see you've got loads of guitars in the back ground of the photo - I don't think you really need this one - fortunately I am happy to take it off your hands for free to make some space for you)

JerkMoans

Thanks for the kind words! Think I'll keep it after all...

the puc pic above is from the chap I bought it from, who takes a far better picture than me!  Here's a more recent one in my possession...

Hi. Any idea if the bigsby was factory fitted. I'm assuming from the reverb ad that this has been touted for a HB in the neck?
It looks absolutely lovely

Yep there was apparently a Gibson HB in there for a while so it has the routing. I was told when I bought it and believe that the Bigsby was a factory fitting. I've got a ton of pictures and further info if you're interested.
