Fender 1978 Telecaster Custom, Modded B-Bend Wine Red - Used

This 1978 Fender Telecaster Custom in Wine Red is a seriously vibey vintage piece with loads of character and unmistakable mojo. Featuring a professionally installed B-Bender modification, this Tele delivers classic country bends and expressive lead lines with smooth, reliable action — and it sounds fantastic.

The guitar has been set up in-store and plays well, with plenty of life left in the frets. A unique handmade leather pickguard adds custom flair and personality.

As expected from a well-loved instrument of this era, it shows honest cosmetic wear. There is patina to the chrome hardware, some chrome loss, binding missing at the neck join (see photos), as well as buckle rash and general marks consistent with age and use. None of this detracts from its playability or vibe — it simply adds to its vintage appeal.
