1956 Fender Esquire
1956 Fender Esquire
This is a one-owner, survivor guitar--it’s as original as the day it was first taken out of the box. It has that perfect soft V-shaped neck that tapers into a chunky club by the 10th fret, giving the ’56 its iconic status. The neck was constructed from a flat-sawn piece of Rock Maple. Its pencil date is 10/56.
This nicely figured, one-piece body guitar weighs in at 7.55 lbs. All electronics and solder joints are 100% original. It’s a “snappy” guitar with great tonal variation from its 3-position switch.
Included with the guitar are the original ash tray and the original side-pocket tweed case. All hardware, hinges, and latches are in tact and fully functional on the case.
