Up for sale, a 2010 Fender Official Disney Donald Duck Telecaster model TL-Donald in excellent, 100% original condition and in perfect working order. This rare, discontinued Telecaster is easily one of the more visually distinctive instruments to emerge from Fender Japan, produced as part of an official collaboration with Disney. One of only 100 made, rest assured this Donald Duck Telcaster has maximum quack.
Beyond the Donald Duck graphics, this TL-Donald yields traditional Tele tonalities, with a balanced, clear acoustic response. The TL-Vintage single coils have plenty of spank and twang on tap, with a focused cut at the bridge and smoother, bell-like chime at the neck. This Donald Duck Telecaster weighs 7lbs 7oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
