I purchased a Modern player short scale tele a while back and am looking for a service manual like the one I have for my Acoustasonic tele. I would like the parts list since this Short scale is a keeper.

Overseas Guitar or not, it plays very well for my Jazz sessions. I have been seeing them disappear from all of the stores (and EBAY) with the exception of a few at GC.

I ordered another one which will be in tomorrow.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Ed

Check here my friend.

http://support.fender.com/service_diagrams/telecaster/014-4500A_SISD.pdf

I want one of these for my short scale since the parts are different than any other tele.

Fender calls their wiring diagrams "service manuals", probably because they usually have the part list with part numbers...
(And like I've said before, it would be real nice if Fender would include all part numbers, not just the combined assembly number.)

To the OP:
The short scale series is discontinued, so the service diagram can't be found on the now non-existing product page. And they haven't added a service diagram on the support pages - so maybe it was never made.

The closest seems to be the Modern Player Thinline service diagram. I would guess parts like tuners, bridge, switches etc. are the same. And on pots, caps and original wiring (etc.) you could just make notes the next time you have the pickguard off. Posting it online might help someone else, too.
If you need info on the Guild HB-1, google. There's lots of info on the vintage models, a bit on the reissues :wink:

Edit: Wow, does that Acoustasonic diagram Juiced posted give better info than the Thinline one..?

@jmattis - Thank you for the updated info.

That is closer, but the neck is a 24" scale and it has the best sounding Guild pickup ( I am sure the combo of the guitar parts adds to it) I have had in a while.

I may have to take it apart to get a peek at the part numbers.
