Trogly; FYI according to “Fender The Golden Age” by Kelly, Foster and Kelly, the original rosewood Tele as gifted to Harrison was “made by sandwiching two slabs of thick rosewood together with a thin layer of maple running through the centre. To alleviate weight, Kubicki hollowed out chambers in the rosewood slabs.”

A few years ago a local guy, older guy, was selling one of these cause he was unable to play anymore. It was an all rosewood fender tele that he said he had since the 70s. He was only asking $100, seem sketchy and was doubtful about it. He did have lots of pics and looked legit. I got his address and he told me to hurry cause he had another guy on the way too. He was about 30miles away, I made it half way when he text'd me that the other guy showed up and took it. I still wonder if indeed it was real and tell myself I should have not been so slow to move to get it

Very cool. About 4 years ago I purchased a solid (non-weight relieved, almost 12 pounds) rosewood Telecaster, it has turned out to be one of my favorite. Not sure about this one, however mine has a super thick neck profile that is 1.10" at the 12th. The rosewood construction really does change the tone as compared to a traditional Ash/Maple Tele. Not sure if it's because mine is solid, but the tone is very dark, nothing like this version at all. Fun Fact, the reason for the maple strip/layer, rosewood is such an oily wood that it doesn't like to be glued to itself, they add the maple in between them so that the glue will better hold to the maple.

In the mid-‘80s, I bought a Japanese Rosewood Tele reissue from a guy who had it imported from Japan. He said it was a “gray-market” model, as it didn’t have “Made in Japan” anywhere on it, and wasn’t supposed to be available in the US at all. It was gloss-finished on both the body and neck, and the neck was one piece-no separate fingerboard. Vintage-style Kluson tuners and non-threaded steel bridge saddles. I believe it was chambered, but it was still pretty heavy, and it was actually a little darker-sounding than most alder- or ash-bodied Teles. I played it for a few years, and traded it off for a Fender Strat Plus, which was a great guitar.

Secret about Sharpie: it’s not really permanent. Dry Erase markers have alcohol based solvents in them. Rub some dry erase marker over the Sharpie, give it a few seconds, then wipe off with a dry erase marker eraser, the Sharpie should be gone. Sometimes black sharpie leaves a shadow (especially the “pro” version, so just repeat the process and it should clear up. Now will it mess up this guitar, that really depends on how Fender finished this, and if alcohol solvents are bad for it.

They look nice, but George's at least, was _really_ heavy. I think it's odd that so many people associate it with him given how little he cared for it. Lucy was much more his preferred guitar, before moving to strats _almost_ exclusively during the 70s. Still, it was iconic for the moment I guess, and it's unique look coupled with the few songs it appeared on are enough. It's also a lot more subtle than Rocky lol

All rosewood neck is very nice. All rosewood body (solid) has little appeal to me because of the weight, though from what you say the chambering addresses this. The grain is nice, especially on the sides of the guitar, but gloss would definitely bring it out more. The original price for these was actualy not too bad, but I still think there are a lot of guitars I'd rather have more for the same money. I have an Am Pro II Tele and it ticks all the boxes for me.

I’ve been obsessed with owning a rosewood telecaster, especially if it was the george harrison model so i had it in the cart ready to check out…but then i also have my eyes on the Japanese rosewood telecaster which is glossy all around and tbh, looks way better than the USA production, needless to say i didn’t purchase the GH model, instead I’ll buy the glossy made in japan fender rosewood tele, looks so beautiful. This one however more closely resembles the one George played on the rooftop gig so any purists out there would buy this one for that reason and also their resale value goes up.

I’m much more of a Les Paul guy, but that is one beautiful Tele! Before you sell it, you should try swapping some other pickups into it to see if you can get a tone you like better. Seymour Duncan makes all kinds of pickups for whatever kind of tones you’re looking for. You might also get someone to spray a gloss finish into it, if you’re really not liking the satin. Or you could just buff it out a bit. Just a thought. I can see why you’re not satisfied with the tone, but it does really have kind of its own thing going on. It grew on me as you played it. I especially liked the gainer tones.

The E/B string tree is much so closer to the nut than a typical Tele providing much more sever break angle. This is obviously due to the legalization of drinking alcohol on the job at the factory. As a side note, In the 80's, I watched one of these rosewood behemoths fall from the top hook at GC. It took out other pricey Fenders and a jazz box on the way down. This is after an employee got out the ladder of shame and w/o one iota of understanding that "Tele headstocks don't fit in guitar hooks", proceeded to place it way up on the 3rd tier close to the ceiling. He put said ladder away and went on to do his biz. I had thought it stopped its twisting movement, but all of a sudden from across the showroom I watched as it found its new gravity-less freedom and Pow! Zing! BanG, SMAsh! ThUd..... I never laughed so hard and cried at the same time. A huge crowd gathered as employees and spectators gathered. GC dude didn't cop to his mistake and acted like acted like anyone but him caused it. I wasn't about to stick his mistake in his face or rat him out, but I only hope he sees this and with his 40 years of personal growth, fesses up. All guitars involved were unplayable. I'll never forget that event.
