A fantastic and original
Vintage 1952 Fender Telecaster Neck
You're looking at an incredibly rare '52 Telecaster Neck. Signed by the legend himself - Tadeo Gomez.
This neck was sent back to Fender around 1965 for new lacquer and a new logo. This is evidenced by the "Transition" Era logo applied to the headstock and the "repair and restoration" ID stamp on the heel of the neck (the pressed stamp 7263 and the ink stamp B813). The neck retains it's original slot-head truss rod nut, the original string tree and most importantly the pencil date: TG 7-9-52 along with the "D" stamp you see on these early blackguard era necks and bodies. The finish is nitro and has aged beautifully. The frets were replaced at some point and were just leveled and crowned - they play perfectly. The neck is straight and true and the truss rod turns perfectly. This is an incredible neck to play as-is. A correct 1952 waterslide could be easily applied to this headstock should you elect to fully restore it to 1952 specs.
1950's Telecasters have become one of the top two guitars every deeply serious player and collector must have in their arsenal (the other being a 1950's Les Paul) - and for good reason. The reasoning is quite simple - the Telecaster was a nearly perfect design. Leo hit it out of the park on the first pitch. The build quality and wood used in these early and mid 1950's Telecasters is some of the finest tonewood ever used in the history of the electric guitar.
We're proud to offer you the chance to complete the Tele build of your dreams - to start from scratch, to pair your vintage 50's body with an original Tadeo 52 Neck, or replace an old funky neck with the real deal. Whatever the end result may be, you won't find a finer candidate than this July 1952 neck! These have become so valuable and rare, that it's almost impossible for us to offer 50's Tele parts for sale. Please don't miss out on this one!
