Fender Japan 1st Edition Telecaster '52 'Micawber' MIJ FujiGen Built 1989

Here is a very rare (and very clean!) late 1980’s Fender Japan FujiGen built Micawber Telecaster.  It’s a J-Serial (1989-90) and was built for Fender at the renowned FujiGen plantin Japan. It’s a 1952 reissue with great sounding factory installed Dragtser humbucker in the neck based on Keith Richards ‘Micawber’ Tele. All FujiGen factory spec. It has a beautiful butterscotch blonde finish, which is darkening nicely. White ash body, with a maple neck and fingerboard with a 7.25 radius. The bridge pick-up is nice and meaty sounding. The neck is dead straight, truss rod fine and plenty of life left in the frets. Structurally and electrically sound. No issues at all. No breaks, repairs or routing. Very clean for such an old Micawber. With no big notable dings, just normal light playwear. It has a nice dull patina over all the metal hardware inc the brass bridge & saddles. It’s a hefty old lump like most of these white ash 80’s FujiGens and tips the scales at 4.7kg.  A great playing Tele, the pickups are both outstanding and work well together, much more balanced than we usually find with these ones. The factory single coil more than holds its own against the Dragster humbucker. All in all a very cool 30+ year old Fender Japan Micawber. Complete with vintage Japanese padded leatherette gig bag (both zips working but one missing its puller).
