Up for grabs is an absolutely killer Tele Custom 1972 reissue, which is a real tone monster with killer looks and smooth playability. If you are searching for a guitar that can handle any genre from grunge to classic rock and everything in between, then this Tele deserves your attention. Produced at the famed Tokai factory and made for the Japanese market, it has a sleek, black finish, premium ash body and three-ply (BWB) pickguard. It also features a chunky maple neck and sleek maple fingerboard. This is top quality Ash and looks like something that could have made it on to a Custom Shop guitar. Aside from its visual appeal, this Tele is a great player that is structurally and electrically perfect. This Tele is sonically on point and fun to play. It is in excellent condition as you can see in the pics. It has a few little top surface coat scratches, but nothing out of line with light play-wear. as with any pre-loved guitar If you look hard enough, you could possibly find a little scuff/ding, but overall this a clean piece with only minor play-wear. It has a fresh professional set up for optimal playability and top notch sound. The intonation was dialed in and the frets were dressed / polished. They look fantastic and have plenty of life left.
In early 1951 the creation of the Telecaster began a sort of musical revolution... Not even Leo Fender himself could have predicted the impact of this guitar. When it was officially unveiled that year at the largest industry trade show it received its fair share of criticism. Onlookers mockingly referred to it as a "boat paddle" and "snow shovel." That initial interpretation did not last long however... Players soon realized that Fender had created something new and unusual, but more importantly, this guitar was well-designed, easy-playing, efficient, rugged, affordable and, above all, great-sounding. What had been designed was something that didn't't really exist before...a mass-produced, solid body, Spanish-style, electric guitar. The innovations continued and in the 70's Fender started to play around with Humbucking pickups, which were all the rage amongst professional players who favored Gibsons. The 70's brought us the Telecaster Custom as we all now know it. This guitar captures the magic while leaving the crazy price tags behind. Don'y miss out on this Tele that is just oozing with all the vintage vibe you are craving to lead you on a musical revolution.

Our Guarantee
We stand behind every guitar we sell. "Good enough" is never good enough. Every instrument is inspected, set up, and tested by multiple people immediately before shipping. We deliver the highest standard of quality and have built a reputation as a three-time NAMM Top 100 Dealer since 2009. The Dude Abides.
Neck & Setup (unless otherwise noted)
- Neck is perfectly straight with no truss rod issues.
- Intonation is spot-on.
- Professionally set up with low action and new American-made strings.
- All frets are dressed, leveled, crowned (if needed), and polished to shine like new, with no divots.
Return Policy, Restocking Fees & No Tire-Kicking Policy
We offer a 7-day return policy. However:
- You must notify us in writing within 3 days of delivery (per tracking) of your intent to return.
- Original shipping and return shipping costs are not refunded unless the guitar is damaged in transit or is significantly not as described (for example, you ordered red and got white, or a Telecaster instead of a Les Paul).
- A 15% restocking fee applies to all returns for any reason other than damage in transit or significantly not as described. Please note that a 10% restocking fee applies to orders that have been purchased and paid for and have been off the market for 24 hours or more, even if they have not been shipped or picked up by the carrier, because we perform a final setup and change the strings as soon as an order is placed and paid for. NO EXCEPTIONS.
We do our best to honestly describe and photograph every guitar and most of the noticeable imperfections. That said, we are human, and something very small can be overlooked. If tiny marks, dings, or super fine scratches (normal wear) bother you, please don't buy.
We record demo videos of every guitar before shipping to document its exact condition and performance. Additional photos, measurements, or in-hand descriptions are available upon request prior to purchase.
Minor adjustments to a setup (for example, correcting a slight buzz or a truss rod tweak) are normal after shipping, due to carrier mishandling and climate and atmospheric changes, especially when moving from South Florida to colder or less humid environments. These slight issues do not constitute "significantly not as described." Guitars must be returned in the exact same condition as received/advertised, or additional repair/restocking fees will apply.
We are a small, family-owned and family-run business, not a big-chain retailer. We invest significant time, money, and effort into every guitar. This is a NO TIRE-KICKING shop. There is no post-purchase haggling, and there are no returns without restocking fees and no partial refunds. If minor cosmetic marks, tiny imperfections, odors/smells, or the possibility of a post-shipping setup tweak makes you uncomfortable, please do not buy. Plenty of large retailers offer free trials and can absorb shipping costs; we do not.
Payment, Shipping & International Duties
- All items can be shipped internationally. The buyer is fully responsible for all import duties, taxes, and customs fees.
- We accept PayPal, PayPal Credit, Affirm, and other major payment methods.
- Most U.S. shipments are sent via UPS or FedEx with full insurance, tracking, and signature confirmation. All packages are professionally packed for maximum protection.
International Shipping Note
International shipping prices shown are for most countries; certain countries have higher costs. We try to avoid USPS and mostly ship UPS, but in certain situations USPS is the only available or reasonable carrier. Express services (UPS, DHL, FedEx) are always available. We can't undervalue merchandise, as it could not be properly insured. If you would like to discuss different options, contact us by email or phone for a personalized quote.
Thank you for considering The Guitar Dude. We look forward to earning your business and delivering a guitar that exceeds your expectations. Contact us anytime for questions, consignment inquiries, layaway details, or a personalized shipping quote.
