+1 and the nut/string spacing looks good.

Lovley~ Thanksguys


I may just add a string through bridge, some bareknuckles and a interesting pickgaurd to make her roar a bit more

What effects, by you reconings would a brigde mod have on the resale value, if properly done?

I will be bidding tomorow!

I couldn't quite make out the serial number when I zoomed in on the photo, but it looks like this is a mid-2000s MIM Standard Tele (kind of looks like the serial number might begin with "MZ4" which would make it a 2004-2005 built guitar). It looks like it already has a string-through bridge.

i think its mim telecaster

Generally people wont fake cheap mexican fenders because there is not a lot of room for profit. Again though thats not set in stone
