1952 Fender Esquire "The Blackguard"
Description
This is an Esquire manufactured in 1952, two years after its initial release.
Over 60 years have passed since production, and while there is some minor wear and weather checking due to aging and use,
it remains in excellent plus condition overall.
The neck finish remains original. We replaced frets with the same width as the originals but slightly taller, so you can use it with 100% remaining life.
This coveted Blackguard Esquire boasts a straighter, punchier tone than Telecasters of the same era.
This includes a very rare original gig bag case that Fender offered as an option back in the 1950s when cases were sold separately.
It also includes a recent hard case for delivery and storage.
Neck Date / TG-12-11-52
Body Date / 11-5-52
Pot Date / 140 220
