FERNANDES Telecaster Guitar PT-45 Short Scale Black w/Hardcase
$700.00
I purchased this guitar on eBay and it is truly a unique guitar. I am not a collector, just an average player but I am a small person and recently I've gotten into 3/4 guitars, so when I saw this Short Scale Telecaster, I was intrigued enough to buy it, but I now understand that in between a full size guitar, and a 3/4 guitar, is the short scale guitar. The neck is 24 inches and the entire construction is smaller by about an inch from a full size Telecaster. I've seen a few YouTube videos about the Fender Short Scale Tele, but they are impossible to find.. And as far as I can tell, this Short Scale Fernandez is a pretty rare find.I tried to figure out when it was made, the best estimate is late 80's or early 90's. I looked at quite a few full size Fernandez guitars and most at this age have pretty normal amount's of dings and paint chips. There is one tiny ding on the top of the headstock. I didn't notice it, to me this guitar looks almost perfect for the age. The case is also in almost perfect condition. The guitar case has a slightly musty smell, like this one was in someone's basement for 30 years.It plays beautifully and sounds incredible, but for me, it's bigger than my 3/4's and I know I'll wind up not playing it so I want to send it off to a good home. I'm 5'5" and barley 120 pounds. I'm basically a child size person so the 3/4's have turned out to be a great fit for me, but even if you are my size and you've been playing full size guitars, this thing is just incredible. I really don't know if this is a collectable but for a smaller person, this is a one a kind killer guitar.Since posting this listing, I was contacted by someone who offered to purchase the guitar but had concerns about the condition. I am not a professional reseller, just a guy who needs to sell some gear every now and then so I offered to take the guitar to my luthier and I paid to have the guitar completely set up and checked over and then he did not buy it. According to my guitar guy, truss rod is working great, neck is very straight and the frets and fret board show no signs of wear, all of the electronics are in perfect working order and it plays beautifully..
