This is a 2008-2009 Mexican Standard Telecaster in the signature butterscotch color. I installed a black pickguard, but a tortoiseshell one is also included. In great shape! The action is a little high right now because I wanted the strings to fight me a little. But a quarter turn of the truss rod would make it low. Also installed are brass saddles, but the standard aluminum ones are included. I installed a killswitch button between the volume and tone knobs. Great guitar. I just have too many. Includes strap locks and a gig bag.
