Up for sale, a 2011 Fender Limited Edition Blue Flower Telecaster model TL69/HB in near-mint, 100% original condition and in perfect working order. Rare beyond rare, this “Made in Japan” Telecaster was produced as a limited run model exclusively for Japanese distributor Music Land KEY. Based on a Blue Flower Tele played by guitarist Kazutoshi Sakurai of long-running Japanese pop rock band Mr. Children, this TL-69HB boasts non-standard features including a translucent white pickguard and a humbucker in the neck position.

Weighing 7lbs 6oz, tonewoods include an alder body, maple neck, and thick slab rosewood fretboard, giving this Tele a clear, balanced natural acoustic response with healthy sustain. The Dragster humbucker at the neck position has a full and punchy sound, and the single coil at the bridge delivers plenty of Tele snap and chewy twang. This Telecaster TL69/HB benefits from a professional setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
