DISC Fender Deluxe Nashville Telecaster Electric Guitar, Fiesta Red - Nearly New

Full Description

Alder Body

The Nashville has an Alder body, delivering a strong, full-bodied sound with beefy mids and excellent lows. The wood offers sizzling highs with an incredible sustain, combined with the semi-hollow design produces an improved tele sound. The Telecaster also features knurled flat-top control knobs, a mint green pickguard, nickel/chrome hardware, and a fiesta red finish to show of the woods figuring.

Maple Neck and Rosewood Fingerboard

The guitars Maple neck contributes some tightness and cut to the overall tonality, creating an edge of sizzle in the highs and bright characteristics. The Rosewood fingerboard helps to fur up the Maples tone, giving it a little warmth and sweetness to produce sparkling highs and thick lows. The Maple/Rosewood combination creates an open mid-range with a snappy attack, perfect for playing leads and chords. Its modern “C” shape offers a comfortable play, while its 12” radius and 20 medium jumbo frets provide a familiar feel when playing.

Vintage Noiseless Single Coil Pickups

The Telecaster features a pair of vintage noiseless tele pickups in the neck and bridge positions, with a vintage noiseless strat pickup in the middle to provide an incredibly versatile guitar. The highly articulate vintage noiseless pickups offer rich tones with a balanced string response to create the classic twang of a telecaster, with all the definition it needs.

String Thru Construction

The Deluxe Nashville Telecaster incorporates a string-thru body construction to provide improved tonality and sustain by transferring vibrations and resonance from the string to the body. The modern six saddle bridge uses block saddles to provide incredible sustain and string stability, giving the guitar a thicker tone that compliments the famous telecaster twang.

The History of the Telecaster

The rich history of Fender guitars begins with the Telecaster. An indispensable instrument, the Telecaster was the world's first successful solid-body electric guitar. Perfected after two years of development - and a name change or two - the Telecaster debuted in February 1951 and began its steady ascent towards the stage and studio. Ingeniously engineered with the ability to be heard both loud and clear, it was a marvel of simple design elegance and workhorse functionality. It is perhaps fitting testimony to its essential original rightness that the Telecaster design has hardly changed ever since.
