DISC Fender LTD Thinline Super Deluxe Telecaster RW, Orange

Full Description

Semi-Hollow Mahogany Body

Fender’s Troublemaker Telecaster features a mahogany body, offering a medium to heavy construction to create a strong and sturdy design that will stand up to the gigging musician's lifestyle. The semi-hollow designed enhances the Tele’s natural resonance, creating a big sound with plenty of depth. This Limited-Edition Guitar is finished in a vibrant orange and a nitrocellulose lacquer, with its thin, porous, and delicate coating allowing the tonewoods to breath with their natural tonal character and resonance. The lacquer is also known to wear and age in a certain way that appeals to many players.

Deep ''C'' Maple Neck & Rosewood Fingerboard

This stunning and unique guitar is paired with a Deep ''C'' maple neck designed for comfort and speed, delivering an incredible performance suitable to a wide variety of playing styles. Unlike other neck profiles, the Deep ''C'' features more substantial shoulders which creates a natural feel in the player's hand, perfect for chords and single notes. The neck is coupled with a rosewood fingerboard to create warm, soft tones, while ‘furring up’ the maple’s harsh edges for a sizzling high end and an open midrange attack. The rosewood’s naturally oily surface allows any stray overtones to be absorbed into the pours, offering the LTD Tele with a natural fundamental tone.

TV Jones Classic Pickups

This unique Thinline Tele features a set of TV Jones classic mini humbuckers, which not only add to its vintage aesthetic but captures the twang and growl of the late 50s and early 60s. These all-around pickups offer an incredibly versatile performance, producing plenty of punch and dynamics to suit everything from rock and blues, to country and rockabilly. The neck pickup is a re-creation of the famous 1959 PAT. APPLIED FOR Filter’Tron, offering classic warmth and an incredible sustain. The bridge pickup feature more power and wider pole-to-pole spacing than the neck pickup, keep the overall tone balanced.

Treble-Bleed Circuitry

In addition to these pickups, the Limited-Edition Tele also features a treble bleed circuit which maintains the high-end when played at low volumes. This is a particularly great feature for home practice when loud volume isn't permitted.

String Through Construction

This Limited-Edition Fender incorporates a string-through body construction to improve the overall tonality and sustain, transferring the vibrations and resonance from the strings to the body. The American Strat bridge features bent steel saddles to keep the strings stable, allowing the guitar to be played harder without going out of tune.

Narrow Tall Frets

Another addition to this model are the 21 narrow tall frets, which are mounted on the rosewood fingerboard and provide incredible comfort when performing slides. Being slightly narrower than standard medium jumbo frets, the narrow tall frets are incredible effective for bending notes and playing chords with superb intonation.

Bone Nut

Along with its amazing tone and looks, the Thinline Super Deluxe Tele also features a bone nut which adds to its classic aesthetic. The main purpose of using a bone nut, compared to modern materials, is the bone offers excellent resonance and sustain. A bone nut also delivers a very balanced tone, and will last a long time. In addition, this type of nut naturally self-lubricates and helps the guitar to stay in tune for longer.

Elite Moulded Case

This unique guitar is delivered in an elite moulded case, featuring body-hugging contours which holds the guitar firmly in place. TSA latches are also included for enhanced security and easy access. This durable case also features a stacking ability, for easy storage and transport.
