Timeless tone. Revel in the bespoke character produced by two authentic '60s style single coils. Fender have teamed up with pickup guru Tim Shaw to recapture the vintage magic that makes the original Telecaster so special. Dive into the classic soundscape with pickups custom voiced specifically to evoke that period, but also possess the bite too.
From tight lows to twangy mids, the American Original '60s Tele brings a wealth of tonal textures to the party. Whether you're laying down a fat blues riff or keeping it modern with an indie-style solo, you'll always get the shimmering highs that have made Fender famous
Original styling. Modern playability
If sophistication could be sculpted, it would look like the American Original. Crafted from solid maple, the fingerboard boasts comfort and couture with a 9.5" radius and vintage tall frets. The result is effortless finger positioning that leaves your hands unhindered.
At a 25.5" scale, the full length of the neck is accessible by any level of player. Upper access to the fretboard goes unchallenged, giving you the room to solo without compromise. This is a neck that sings in your hands, resonating with natural clarity and undeniable class.
Shaped for excellence
Fender have outdone themselves with this beautiful creation. The Thinline design is perfect for guitarists who love to play for as long as possible. Plug in and play all night. The semi-hollow chamber is a feather light spin on the classic Telecaster design, providing an almost weightless feel and superb resonance.
In addition, this semi-hollow frame adds a subtle warmth that elevates the characteristic Tele twang to a whole new level. The Thinline has been longstanding feature in almost every genre, and that's because it has an adaptable style allowing it shine in any situation. Enough bite for hard rock, ample subtlety for country and jazz.
The Bridge between stability and intonation
Building upon the legacy of the '60s masterpiece, the Thinline Tele boasts a vintage style 3-saddle bridge. This bespoke appointment offers impeccable tuning stability, and allows players to tweak their intonation with the slotted steel saddle.
But this fixed bridge doesn't work alone. It has a partner in crime at the top of the neck. The bridge and Pure Vintage tuning machines join forces to ensure your strings are constantly singing in the right key. That's perfect pitch. And a perfect performance.
