SOLD Just arrived is this very cool Fender Telecaster Baja series Ash body in a Poly desert sand finish . It's in great condition and includes a hardcase . These guitars are amazing with high end features . Brass saddles , Custom shop Twisted pickups , Maple neck This guitar sounds great and play awesome .
The neck is nice and straight and the truss rod works as it should. The electronics all work perfectly too. It's getting harder and harder to find one of the early run Baja's and this one is awesome .
The guitar has the fender s1 switching see below for details:
The is a specialized Telecaster model with a four-way blade switch rather than the three-way switch typically found on most Telecasters. Without engaging the S-1 switch, the first three blade switch positions deliver standard Telecaster wiring, with a special in-series fourth position that creates a thicker tone with more output. Like so:
· Position one: bridge pickup only
· Position two: bridge and neck pickups in parallel
· Position three: neck pickup only
· Position four: neck and bridge pickups in series
Engaging the S-1 switch on this particular Telecaster introduces out-of-phase circuitry to blade switch positions two and four only, with positions one and three remaining unaffected. This produces a thinner and more-hollow tone of the kind often heard in, for example, funk and early electric blues. Like so:
· Position one: bridge pickup only
· Position two: bridge and neck pickups in parallel and out of phase
· Position three: neck pickup only
· Position four: neck and bridge pickups in series and out of phase
Made in mexico .
This one has a replacement black guard put on it .
