All I can say, is until you play and own a 50's Fender Tele.. you are missing out! Nothing feels and sounds like a V Neck Profile.. It will be your friend for life!
The Body is Correct Color thin Nitro Re Finish. Inside Pickup Bridge is (and 1-57 body date) original finish. Inside neck pocket and under neck plate is Original finish. So basically all original but re fin body, case and pick guard
The real 1952 Brass saddles along with a Brass Nut, just works and is a Very Vibrant and Sparkle Bell Tone....... Even Un-Plugged!!..

Bridge pickup is Original and is 6.39k and south polarity magnets.... JUST PURE BELL TONE!
This is the Real Deal! So leave as it is.. Great!!!!
