This is a vintage 1973 Fender Thinline. The Guitar is all original with the exception of a jumbo re-fret job done by Jensen Guitar in Santa Barbara, Ca. This guitar has a very thin neck and plays like a dream. The humbucker pickups were designed by Seth Lover for Fender. The tone is best set on Fender overdrive growl. The humbuckers and hollowed out Thinline body combo gives this Telecaster great resonance and sustain. Tab Benoit plays this model (1972) and Jonny Lang used a 72 earlier in his career.
