Product Description
1987, Made In Japan, “G” serial
From the earliest days of FujiGen production
This is the VERY RARE to find, and highly sought after, TLM-55 M model
Most commonly found in the late 1980s “PRO-FEEL” series
What makes it so special and unique?…
It is a Medium scale/neck Telecaster!
Specifically, it is 24 ¾”, which is the same as a Gibson LP or SG etc
(instead of the standard 25 ½” neck of a Fender Tele)
Making this guitar a weapon of choice for the smaller player
Or, for those searching for a more familiar neck as your Gibson, you can now have the glassy single coil tone and twang that you cannot get with humbuckers
This model also has a 21 medium sized frets
With a thinner 39mm nut neck width (standard Tele is 42mm)
Finally, a faster and more contemporary 9.5” radius
Very shallow and fast soft “C” profile
Vintage Natural (“blonde”) finish
With a beautifully grained, Ashwood body
Three ply Black pickguard
Gotoh sealed headstock tuners
6 saddle string through bridge, for greater intonation
Top mount truss rod adjustment, micro tilt neck adjustment
Standard Telecaster controls = 1x volume / 1x tone / 3 way pickup switch
It is THE perfect model for the Telecaster lover and collector that prefers a shorter Gibson scale length
Excellent overall condition for a 35+ year old vintage instrument
Truly one of the best examples of this model you will ever find
Very little to no real fret wear, all original, with no modifications
Includes a Gig Case/Bag
