Up for sale, a 2021 Fender Original Canvas Esquire in mint condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hangtags and hardshell case. A unique model designed to offer a blank canvas that begs to be doodled and painted upon, the Original Canvas model is a marshmallow of possibility, offered alongside Fender Japan's Art Canvas models and equally as rare.
Tonewoods include an ash body, maple neck, and slab rosewood fretboard. At the heart of this model is an American Vintage '58 Esquire/Tele bridge pickup, coupled to a three-way Tone switch and offering plenty of chewy twang and sparkling single coil cut, with the inherent midrange authority of ash. Weighing 7lbs 9oz, this Esquire has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike's Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
