Vintage Left Hand 1978 Fender Telecaster Electric Guitar

• Original Black Gloss Finish
• Maple Neck and Fretboard
• Original Pickups
• Comprehensive SCM-Pro setup including fret dress
• Original Molded Fender Case
• Incredible Opportunity!

On offer is an ultra-rare Left Hand Fender Telecaster built in Fullerton, California in 1978.
This guitar was bought by its current owner from the original purchaser in the early 1980s and is now, after all these years offered for sale again.


The overall condition is very good – best described a “light relic”. The original black gloss polyester finish shows the expected light scratches and “soul marks” of a 45 year old guitar. There are no major dents or buckle rash.


The pickups and electrics are also original other than the addition of a longer wire from the volume pot to pickup selector switch to allow the control plate to be turned around.
The guitar has undergone a complete setup including a fret dress and plays beautifully.


The only non-original parts are the string trees which the owner felt simply work better. This is a truly unique opportunity for the left handed guitarist. Instruments such as this rarely come along – especially for the lefty. More photos can be provided upon request. Inspection is recommended – the first serious buyer to play this beauty will buy it.
Includes Original molded Fender case.
