Premium Tonewoods for a Balanced, Resonant Sound

At the heart of this Telecaster?s tone is its alder body, chosen for its balanced tonal qualities. The AAA rosewood fingerboard is paired with a rifle-sawn maple neck, providing smooth playability and a rich, full sound. The guitar?s nitrocellulose lacquer finish allows the wood to resonate fully, giving you a warm, open tone that improves with time. Fender has also sorted the body for lightweight construction, ensuring this guitar is as comfortable to play as it is beautiful to behold.

Authentic Electronics for Vintage-Inspired Tones

In the neck, it features a Josefina hand-wound humbucker, offering rich, warm tones with plenty of body. The bridge houses a hand-wound 50-51 Blackguard single-coil, providing the classic Tele twang with punchy articulation. Paired with a 3-way selector switch and a modern Tele control assembly, these pickups cover a wide range of genres, from blues and rock to country and jazz.

Classic Hardware Built for Performance

Built for stage and studio alike, this Telecaster is equipped with a custom bridge assembly featuring Gatton-style saddles for improved intonation and sustain. The Fender vintage-style tuners with the classic Fender logo provide reliable tuning stability, while the knurled chrome knobs offer smooth volume and tone adjustments.
