Fender I.D.?

Post by Jon den Boer »

I feel I should know more about this, but can someone enlighten me on this steel? It's the only pic I was given… local sale, and he's asking for an offer. Any info, re:
model, and value?

Thanks:)

Looks like a Deluxe 6 (with Stringmaster features), 1950s. Most of these had legs, although I've seen some that didn't have legs.

Case looks like brown Tolex, so probably a '61. Case has pockets for legs... if there are leg sockets on the bottom, pay less for no legs... heck, pay less anyway if there are no legs with it. Nice that it has a case... worth 7-900$. Take off $130 or so for no legs.
