Is this guitar Genuine? Buying from eBay, the head looks slightly out of normal shape. There is no 'telecaster' written, just 'fender' There is something about this guitar that doesn't strike me as completely genuine. Could anyone confirm?

:)

Hi ljb, Looks legit to me. Most left hand Japanese Fenders I've ever seen only say Fender on the headstock. I have a Made In Japan 68 reissue Strat that only has Fender on the headstock. Long time member here Chet has a bunch of MIJ Lefty Fenders, and I'm pretty sure they just have Fender on the headstock also. That's a nice Tele, not sure about the price though. That one is not on the Fender Japan web site, but you can compare it with the ones that are.

Also check out the sellers other items, he's got some more nice lefty's :wink:
Good luck!

It's legit. Probably NOS from around 2005-6. As I believe that's the last they used Crafted In Japan and went back to Made In Japan.
