NGD Fender American Vintage II 1972 Telecaster Thinline

Post by HNB » Fri May 26, 2023 12:40 pm

I got this guitar in trade from marginwalker. He was missing the SG he traded me a ways back and I thought it would be fun to try out a thinline since I haven't had one before. It is pretty and light. The cunife pickups are great. I have one of the AVII deluxes so it is similar, but lighter in weight. I ordered a narrow space bridge to try to help with the high e and low e spacing.

Here are pictures. :D

Thanks! I am still sort figuring it out. It feels like a tele, but is a little different. The pickups make it sound a lot like my deluxe of course. It is interesting. :)

Glad you’re digging it! The SG is the only guitar I’ve been playing since it arrived, so happy to have it back! ;D
