Hi all. a while back i got this 50s style butterscotch two piece ash centre joined body ,big D neck tele it has Bacchus begining of the new tradition on the head stock,serial no 004081 produced by Headway under the no.I was looking for a fender 52 model at the right price didnt happen im glad to say because this monster turned up at about 8and a half pounds no light weight .But what a tele the timber and workmanship in this axe is impressive,some of the best ive ever come across' i cant find out when this was made but i believe no longer available,very sad , but it sounds awesome would this have yuta pups? cheers

They usually had Yutas but some had Lindy Fralins. I have had. A couple a d the heavier one was about the same as yours but that is within decent tele weight IMO. Congrats!

Thanks for that mate , they have to be quality pups and the weight is not a problem for me,im sure it helps with sustain.
