2008 Fender Japan TN72-SPT Spruce Top '72 Telecaster Thinline in Natural (NAT) finish. This extremely rare model was a shop order by Walkin' Music Shibuya, featuring a two-piece spruce top (SPT), two-piece mahogany back, slab ebony fretboard, and fat 50's neck profile—a combination of features found exclusively on this model.

This example has had a headstock break professionally repaired by Portland Fretworks, as it was damaged in transit from Japan.

Set up with D'Addario 10-46 strings, playing well up and down the neck with proper intonation.

Includes Fender Japan gig bag in fair condition.
