[QUOTE="RSteve, post: 561767, member: 164"] [SIZE=5]Even the mention of Fender Telecaster makes me suspicious. A few years ago, a friend thought he'd purchased a mint vintage Telecaster; spent an ungodly amount of money for it from a musician who claimed to have had it for years. Played it, loved it, then found out several months later, when he had it appraised for insurance, that only the neck was original and it had been re-fretted. He confronted the seller, who admitted he'd had it professionally re-fretted and had the original electronics replaced with new Fender electronics, otherwise he'd always thought it was 100% vintage Fender Telecaster. Apparently, the value of the guitar was significantly less than he had paid. In the world we live, I'm guessing that counterfeits of everything are rampant.[/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
