Purchased here from Mark van Allen back in December. (http://bb.steelguitarforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=118534&highlight=) I love the instrument, but haven't had the time to invest in the B-Bender. The description and photos are from Mark's original ad. I hope I'm not breaking any rules to re-use them as long as I give credit where credit is due!
"From the first year of the Fender B-Bender series- USA built Telecaster with factory Parsons-Green B-Bender. Black finish, maple neck, all original except for replacement pickups (Seymour Duncan STR-3 Quarter Pound Rhythm and Dimarzio Chopper-T Bridge) and black chrome knobs. The pickups are the result of a long search for a slightly hotter, fatter output, while still having classic tele spank, and even output from both pickups. There are a few dings and scuffs, and the neck is well played in, as a result of probably a thousand gigs. Great feel, tone, and action. The Bender mechanism works extremely well, quietly and accurately. A great guitar I'm really going to miss. With nice Fender tweed case."
$SOLD, pending payment

I have a Red one like this I bought new in 1997. They only made them with the Standard 2 pickups for a few years. I think these will be worth a lot someday. All the newer ones have 3 pickups like the Nashville model.
I been offered $1200 for mine. I'll never sell it. It's made me a lot of money and it has a few good stories.
Bump to the TOP
