Early 70's Kingston Telecaster copy, made in Japan.
I bought this guitar years ago, and it's been my gigging guitar for the past 7 years or so. It didn't play very well when I got it, so I had the frets replaced and added Kluson split-shaft tuners. The pickups sound really good, in my opinion, but I did do some wiring work to it. I replaced the floppy old pickup switch with a pan pot in place of the tone control, and added a pilot light(Fender amp jewel) that comes on when it's plugged in, just for fun. It has a "glue-lam" body, which helps with tuning stability in different kinds of weather. It has a 24 3/4" scale, like a Gibson All in all, a nice, affordable vintage tele copy that's great for gigging, and pretty much indestructible. Comes with a gig bag. SOLD locally
