USED - Fender Esprit Elite 1985 - White Frost

Here we see an amazing example of a 1985 Fender Esprit Elite in White pearl.

Only manufactured between 1984 and 1985, this stunning guitar features a rosewood fingerboard, special-design Schaller humbuckers and a fine-tuning tailpiece. The Elite has diamond-flake inlays and pearloid-button tuners.

In 1986, Robben Ford was brought on as an endorser of the Esprit model before Fender reworked the concept and dubbed the guitar the Robben Ford signature model.

The Esprit’s body is slightly larger than a Gibson Les Paul, and has symmetrical cutaways; it was intended as an alternative to the Gibson ES-335.

The Neck pickup has coil splitting by use of the chrome microswitch, giving great single coil tones.

Each of the tone controls is a 'TBX' control, which adds a midway tone boost.

The body is Alder, with the neck and cap being maple.

Comes with original hardcase.
