OT: I just became the New Owner of 1964 Fender Esquire!!!

[TRENT]

I'm a guitar collector,,My 1st electric guitar was a 57 Fender Esquire,,I bought for 80 bucks in HS from a friends Dad; I sold it years ago...Check it out they go for 20k now,,,anyways,

I have wanted one for years,,this guy was selling off his fathers estate and I grabbed it for $2500 I am beyond stoked,,It needs work and refinishing but these axes go for 14k!!! I have the correct bridge a 1950 original Broadcaster "Tele bridge" Pickup in perfect condition and the wiring harness for it...I am Sooo Happy! the eagles could take a crap on my dining room table tomorrow and I would pass them the Gravy!

happy thanksgiving everyone!

the body did have some rout work,,and the finish was stripped and the sweet ash body clear coated, why the cheap price,,so the essentials are there,,,going to send it to shop In Manhattan to have the humbucker routes filled,and belly scarf put in,,alla Jeff Beck,,,then have it refinished by Jenny,,should be a long time keeper..worth every penny.....Ill play it for a couple days before taking it apart.

Bwahahaha! You are hilarious!!

I wish I could play the guitar. Too ADHD for it or some shit. Took lessons in HS, but never practiced. You need to be obsessed with it and I just had too many other interests. Ehhh.

[TRENT]

Great pickup...no pun intended.

Body looks like it's hardly been played

wow - nice find

[TRENT]

its a One piece Body and its Pretty

that under a Nice see thru Blonde,,slightly reliced with some Faux Checking,, should dress up nice. Now all I need to know is what it weighs,,they are usually on the lighter side,,my 57 was 6.5 lbs..Im hoping its under 7.

Sweet! Trying to get my Uncle to part with his Fender Jazzmaster. I've got a nice Ludwig (clear) drum kit. Trying to get a band together playing 70's covers in my spare time. Some cool local bars looking for a crisp 90 minute set on weeknights/weekends.
