Cosmetic Condition: This vintage Fender Esquire is in very good condition, with checking, small dings and chips, and other assorted signs of authentic wear on the glossy finish. There is a small spot on the top of the neck pocket (under the heel) where the finish is glossier and whiter than the surround area; this was likely covered by a dealer sticker, which was removed and the area buffed. The back of the neck is glossy and nicely worn.

Tech Notes: The guitar plays well with low action, and the truss rod is functional. The frets are tall with minimal wear. While the original tape inside the control cavity is missing, the neck heel and pocket have their original 1953 pencil dates.
