May 06, 2013  It's hard to tell with Schecters from that era - it looks legit from the Dallas era which was circa 1984-1987ish. I'm going by the 22-fret neck; the Van Nuys era were all 21-fret necks per Tom Anderson (who was a Schecter empolyee from 1977-1984).

Up for sale is this Vintage Schecter Van Nuys Era Telecaster w/ a 1 Piece KOA body, and Shedua Neck. I date this guitar to late 70's to maybe as late as 1981. With the low serial number, I do believe it's closer to 1979 or 1980. If you found this, you likely know about the Schecter Van Nuys Era guitars, if not, it is the first stuff that Schecter was building. A lot of it was custom order to build stuff, out of exotic woods. Most of the early stuff is Fender style builds of either Strats, Teles, Jazz or P Basses. Their complete build stuff was the Dream Machine Series, and would be appointed with Schecter pickups,and typically all Brass hardwear.

I got this guitar in a trade about 5 years ago, and have researched a ton on Vintage Schecter guitars, and have watched the few that come to market over the years. Mine is the best Telecaster I've seen so far.

This is the one you will want. This beauty of a guitar is a solid 1 piece Koa Telecaster Body.

Look at the pictures of the end grain, you will see it does not break, and is a beautiful piece of Koa at that. I also have scans of the original Schecter catalogs, that confirm the wood code of Koa for the body, and that the neck is Shedua. It is similar to a mahogany neck from what I feel.

The body stamp code is F6290 (will show for Fender Tele KOA wood) The neck stamp code is F7270 (will show for Fender Tele Shedua wood) Overall in great condition considering this really doesn't have much of a finish on it. There is some wear and tear on it, and little nicks, dings, and chips on the edges, but nothing super unexpected from a guitar that is from this era. Originally, this guitar likely had all the brass components and Schecter pickups in it. Some time long before I got it, the pickups were replaced by what appears to be vintage 70's Fender Tele parts (I do not have any of the original Schecter parts. Wish I did, they'd be amazing to retrofit to this). The bridge pickup is stamped in a style I've seen Fender use in the 70's, but the bottom of the neck pickup is not marked.

The pickguard is an AllParts brand. The holes did not line up to the original pickguard screw holes, but the AllParts guard is only held in place with the 5 screws that do line up (no extra holes drilled). The case I have for this, is a nice Fender Deluxe case. Has the crushed velvet lining, and looks very nice as well.

I have attached a ton of pictures, and can answer any questions you may have as well. Hate to see her go, but she needs to find a home where she'll get played a little more often than I get to her. Product Specs Condition: Brand Model Finish Categories Year Made In United States.
