Or just neck.
Rosewood neck with some wear, post cleaning - the cleaning didn't cause the wear.*
This is a Fender Contemporary Telecaster, made in 1985 in Japan while Fender USA weren't doing a great deal. Possibly from parts sent over from the USA?
Manufactured in Fujigen.
Scale Length 627.7mm
2 Humbucker
3 position switch
Coil tap switch
1 volume
1 Tone
Fender System 1 tremolo (Schaller)
Rosewood neck
Radius 305mm (12")
22 Fret
The specifications say that both humbuckers have a DC resistance of 7.6kΩ.
Bridge pickup on this model is roughly 7.6kΩ and the neck pickup is 7.06kΩ, which may be due to age related issues or might be the original resistance and the specs are wrong.
I picked this and a VOX combo up for £250 in 1990 - they were budget guitars - if you find one for that price now then snap it up if it's in decent nick, they are really much better than budget.
* I'm not a ham-fisted poltroon, or at least not in this instance.
