Members mrlutton Posted November 1, 2009 Members Share Posted November 1, 2009 PRICE DROP--Will sell for $500 with only the original pickguard and pickup it came with. HS case included. This is a 1981 Fender Lead I guitar in good condition. 21 Fret rosewood neck, F tuners, Seymour Duncan Custom Custom alnico humbucker and a Fender alnico strat pickup added in the neck. This guitar originally only had one humbucker, but all of these models had a single coil rout in the neck spot--they used the same body type for the Lead I and the Lead II guitars from the early 80s. So no irreversible mods have been done--this is an upgrade that can be put back to stock at any time. I changed the pickguard, so the original one pickup guard is included in case you want to put this guitar back to stock specs. The guitar originally had two 3-way switches for pickup phasing and coil tapping. Now, one of the 3-way switches controls the pickup position (neck, both, bridge), and the other switch allows you to tap the humbucker in two different ways. Very versatile guitar in great condition--vintage value will continue to increase and this is a great investment. $550 SHIPPED; cash only. Only interested in Keeley or other boutique pedals on trade toward the value of this guitar (plus cash on your end). Email me at mrlutton@gmail.com if you have questions. This is a superb blues/rock guitar, and it has been taken care of. Original pickguard and humbucker pickup that came with it when I bought it are included. Original Fender USA hard case included.

Members torgeot Posted November 11, 2009 Members Share Posted November 11, 2009 I had a Lead II, the lead series are real nice guitars that are under valued. If you would like an older Fender this is how to get one. Good luck with the sale dude, they are nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members mrlutton Posted November 12, 2009 Author Members Share Posted November 12, 2009 BUMP--great vintage Fender guitar. Excellent rosewood neck, no issues whatsoever. Only honest wear on the solid ASH body--wood grain finish shows through nicely on these Leads. +1 for being red instead of ugly black...
