Squier Vintage Modified Cabronita Telecaster w/ Bigsby - $500 (Hampden)
QR Code Link to This Post
I'd been on the lookout for something with Filtertron-style pickups and managed to pick up two of these at an estate sale recently (one Bigsby, one hard tail). I took them home, cleaned them up, and was then informed that I "don't need that many guitars."
LOL. *sigh*
I don't really use tremolos, so, rather than spend my political capital on something that's not my cup of tea to begin with, I've chosen to aqcuiesce and unload the one with the Bigsby.
This thing is in great shape. It's got some scratches on the back, but the top is near perfect. I cleaned off all the schmutz, polished the frets, put on a new set of .09's, dropped the action a bit, and hit the pickup selector switch with some Deoxit to take care of a little bit of scratchiness.
It's got a Fender Fideli'Tron humbucker pickup in the bridge position, a standard Tele single-coil pickup in the neck, and a Jazzmaster-style rocking bridge.
It also includes a Vibramate string spoiler, which is a little aftermarket add-on plate that goes on the Bigsby to make string changes easier. You can see it in the pics.
Modern C neck, 9.5" fingerboard radius, maple fretboard.
Weight: 8.1 lb.
You can get the full set of specs from Fender's serial number lookup page. I'd post them here directly, but all the formatting gets messed up when I paste it.
Pickup is available in the Hampden neighborhood of Baltimore, 21211 zip code.
I accept cash, Paypal, and Venmo.
