🔥 RARE AS IT GETS: 2010 FENDER TL-72 LIMITED EDITION – PREMIUM ASH BODY IN GLOWING US BLONDE - JAPAN TELE MAGIC! 🔥


This one’s a serious players heartbeat: a rare 2010 Fender Japan TL-72 Limited Edition loaded with a premium ash body finished in that gorgeous US Blonde — a semi translucent white that lets every swirl and grain of the ash shine through like a vintage ’72 Tele that just rolled off the line. The finish is thin, resonant, and alive — glowing under stage lights with that unmistakable Fender snap and depth you only get from real ash and Japanese perfection.


Fender Japan knocked it out of the park with this limited-run TL-72. It’s built like a tank with the classic ’70s Tele DNA: big, comfortable Ritchie Kotzen profile neck, modern bridge (not sure if part of the limited edition run or a modification), and a pair of searing single-coil pickups that deliver that signature Tele twang, bite, and glassy chime while staying thick and punchy when you dig in. Whether you’re chasing country chicken-pickin’, raw rock ’n’ roll, indie jangle, or blistering blues, this limited-edition ash Tele does it all with effortless authority and zero apologies.


Condition that hits different:  

Super clean overall and showing very light honest play — exactly what you want on a 15-year-old limited guitar. There’s one nasty ding right on the front side edge (visible in the pics, adds real character), plus a few small dings on the front and back. Everything else is pristine — no finish checking, no heavy scratches, no mods. The hardware and electronics are 100% original and clean. This TL-72 has been professionally set up and dialed in for perfect action, intonation, and that killer tone right out of the box. It plays like a dream and is ready to go straight to the gig or studio.


Limited Editions like this don’t surface often, and ones with this kind of premium ash body and US Blonde transparency are even rarer. It’s got that elusive vintage Tele mojo in a modern, flawless-playing package that feels like it’s been waiting its whole life for the right player.


Only at The Guitar Dude.

If you’ve been hunting a killer Japanese TL-72 that looks, feels, and sounds like a million bucks without the million-buck price, this is it. Don’t blink — these limited ash Blondes fly out the door. Grab it before it’s gone forever. 🎸
