It's a 1974.Came from the original owner.It's in pretty good condition except for some minor play wear and some finish checking on the back.It's all original except for the case.I only played it a little at the store and I haven't played it plugged in at home yet(my girlfriend is sleeping)I don't plan to flip this guitar.It's much too cool.

Wow!! love that color!
Is it hard to rewire the guitar like that? i've been wanting to do that to my tele custom (i'll try and post some pics later)

Well, it's tricky to get the fucking wires to go where they belong, but the actual solder work is simple. Between RobertOG and myself, we clipped both pickup leads trying to put the sonofabitch together.

I've always wanted to get the squier custom (really a deluxe) and convert it into a proper custom. the tele custom is one of my favorite guitars ever............
FUCK. you guys are testing my restraint.
