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

Here is a very scarce late 1980’s Fender Japan FujiGen built naturally reliced Micawber Telecaster.  It’s an MIJ I-Serial (1989-90) and was built for Fender at the renowned FujiGen plant in Japan (no neck heel date in the one.) It’s a 1952 reissue with great sounding factory USA Texas Special single coil in the bridge and Fender Dragster humbucker in the neck based on Keith Richards ‘Micawber’ Tele. All in original 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 and well balanced against the Texas Special in the bridge. 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. In beautiful vintage condition with lots of honest ageing. There are plenty of web worn in paint chips on the body and oxidisation 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 4.8kg.  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 35+ year old Fender Japan Micawber. Complete with telecaster hardcase and key.
