Fender Telecaster Sunburst 1975
De Telecaster is al sinds jaar en dag een een favoriet onder vele gitaristen; door velen geroemd om zijn no-nonsense karakter, maar even geliefd om zijn veelzijdigheid. Geen muziekstijl is de allround Telecaster te machtig, en dit exemplaar uit 1975 is ook nog eens bijzonder mooi bewaard gebleven!
Het model was al sinds het begin van de jaren '50 niet meer weg te denken uit het gitaarlandschap, en is door de jaren heen eigenlijk geheel ongewijzigd gebleven. Voor Fender brak in 1966 een belangrijk moment aan, want Leo Fender verkocht zijn bedrijf aan CBS. Fender richtte zich vanaf dat moment meer op massaproductie, en er werden ook wijzigingen aan de specificaties doorgevoerd, onder meer in het gebruik van andere lak en materiaal voor de toetsinleg en slagplaten.
Volgens criticasters zijn de instrumenten uit het CBS-tijdperk inferieur aan de gitaren uit de beginperiode van Fender, maar we moeten eerlijk zeggen dat deze Telecaster uit 1975 toch wel een hele fijne gitaar is! De Telecasters uit de jaren zeventig staan bekend om hun wat zwaardere body, en met een gewicht van 4,2 kg bevestigt deze Tele dat punt zonder meer.
De in Sunburst afgewerkte body en glanzend gelakte hals zien er echter nog prachtig uit, en maken deze Telecaster tot een goed spelend en klinkend onderdeel van de muziekgeschiedenis. Enkele kleine dings en lichte speelsporen zijn zichtbaar, maar de gitaar is verder zeer schoon. Deze Telecaster is daarbij ook nog eens bijna helemaal origineel, want alleen de pickupschakelaar is vervangen. Wordt met TFOA paspoort geleverd in een koffer.
The Telecaster has long been a favourite among many guitarists; praised by many for its no-nonsense character, but equally loved for its versatility. No style of music is too powerful for the all-round Telecaster, and this 1975 example is also exceptionally well-preserved!
The model had been a staple of the guitar landscape since the early 1950s, and has actually remained completely unchanged over the years. An important moment broke for Fender in 1966, as Leo Fender sold his company to CBS. Fender focused more on mass production from then on, and changes were also made to the specifications, including the use of different lacquer and material for the fingerboard inlays and pickguards.
Critics say CBS-era instruments are inferior to guitars from Fender's early days, but we have to be honest and say that this 1975 Telecaster is quite a fine guitar after all! Telecasters from the 1970s are known for their somewhat heavier bodies, and at 4.2 kg, this Tele definitely confirms that point.
However, the Sunburst-finished body and glossy lacquered neck still look great, and make this Telecaster a well-playing and sounding part of music history. Some minor dings and light playing marks are visible, but the guitar is otherwise very clean. With that, this Telecaster is also almost completely original, as only the pickup switch has been replaced. Comes with TFOA passport in a hardshell case.

Der Sunburst-lackierte Korpus und der glänzend lackierte Hals sehen jedoch immer noch toll aus und machen diese Telecaster zu einem gut spielbaren und klingenden Teil der Musikgeschichte. Einige kleinere Dellen und leichte Spielspuren sind sichtbar, aber die Gitarre ist ansonsten sehr sauber. Damit ist diese Telecaster auch fast komplett original, da nur der Tonabnehmerschalter ersetzt wurde. Wird mit TFOA-Pass in einem Hartschalenkoffer geliefert.
