Nice, but pretty run of the mill used tele for around 200% price of new one.

He does have better taste in guitars than shoes though, I’ll give him that.
As I said earlier, Team Built is better in my experience. I’ve never played a single Masterbuilt I really liked or thought it was as good as any Team Built I've played.
If you think about it, why would it be? Fenders were designed from the ground up to be mass-produced by factory workers - assembled from machine-made parts - each specialising in one job. Team Built is just that.
'Masterbuilt' is just a marketing concept to pander to the idea that something made by hand by one person is better than something made on a production line. It isn't.

Also, re the R serial number, there’s a lot of limited edition Relics and other specials that have a serial number starting with CZ and not R.
Your J.W.Black @Gassage would have been all done with him, he wasn't of the just final assemble era. Have one of his Tele's, its pretty unique feeling. I remember your guitar from the TGP days.
