Ok, I admit it I am a huge Tele fan. I pretty much like them in all styles but
there is always something about a Tele with humbuckers that just puts it over the top for
me. This mid 70’s Deluxe features a pair of wide range humbuckers for a tone much fatter
than your average Tele. The walnut finish and maple neck provide a nice visual contrast
and the medium elliptical neck profile plays really well. This guitar is hands down a lot of
fun to play!!

Here at the 12th Fret, we are lucky enough to have an incredible number of great second hand instruments move through the shop every week…. far more than we could ever hope to feature on our website. Every now and then, we get a build up of instruments that deserve some time in the spotlight. Today, we are featuring a fantastic selection of second hand Fender Custom Shop instruments. If you’ve already seen today’s “What’s New” feature, you know we have more Fender Custom Shop guitars in stock right now than we’ve ever had before, with these used beauties rounding out our selection. All 3 guitars featured here are in great condition, and play very well.
MORE →I get the privilege of playing a lot of great vintage guitars, but every now and
then one comes through the shop that really steals the show! This 1956 Stratocaster is a
truly phenomenal guitar. The original finish is in very good condition, with only a few
major dents to show its age. There is some substantial buckle wear on the back, but other
than that it is quite clean. The neck feels beautiful, with no dents or noticeable wear on the
back or the fingerboard. With a total overall weight of 7.45lb, this is also a very
comfortable guitar to hold and play. The original pickups have lost none of their chime or
sparkle. Anyone out there looking for the ultimate Strat, this is it!
This early 70’s P-Bass in Walnut finish has seen some play wear and has lots of
lacquer checking, dents, chips and scratches but it is structurally sound and plays great. It
features an alder body, maple neck, all original electronics and comes with original hardshell
case!
Well, this is the real deal. This 1956 Precision Bass has been through a lot of play, but is in wonderful working condition. The lightweight ash body is resonant and responsive. The
single pickup configuration makes this a no-nonsense workhorse of a guitar, with a punchy
attach and rich sustain.
