Fender Chrissie Hynde Telecaster, Ice Blue Metallic Overview
The Fender Chrissie Hynde Telecaster incorporates the very same features that made her original '65 model so legendary, showcasing a custom mid-'60s "C" shaped maple neck and a 7.25" radius fretboard for smooth and dynamic playing. Plus, when you're armed with custom single-coil pickups, you can be sure to achieve an authentic Chrissie Hynde sound, one that is full of vintage punch and articulation.
It's not just the electronics that make this guitar undeniably striking, but also the brilliant tonewood build. An alder body brings a beautiful tonal undercurrent that is rich, full-bodied, and deliciously defined. It begs the skilful, virtuosic touch of any blues or rock guitarist whilst still being versatile enough to thrive with other styles too. And to keep your instrument in immaculate condition, a deluxe gig bag is included.

And to achieve such sonic wondrousness, vintage-style custom '50s single-coil pickups are loaded at the bridge and neck positions. They exude stunning vintage tonal goodness that takes us back to Hynde's '65 model. With glistening clarity and a punchy, twangy sound, you can be sure that every single note will fly through the air like sparks, reaching the ears of your awestruck audience.

Authentic design
If you're going to emit a hot and fiery '60s tone, you'll want immense playability that still pays homage to this rock-defining era. Fender's scrupulous craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail never falter, and this instrument is no different. In fact, it has resulted in a sumptuous mid-'60s style "C" shape neck. Crafted from maple, this Tele's neck is dreamy to play, sitting comfortably on your palm as you rocket from fret to fret. And maple's sonic capabilities don't fall short either. This tremendous tonewood produces a focused, tight tone that lends itself to dynamic gigs. It is loud, bright, and minimises any feedback, so you won't be left with that dreaded muddy sound. Only pure tonal excellence will flow from the strings. The balance of brightness and resonance that a rosewood fretboard brings will then take your performance to new heights. The sky's the limit when you have such a magnificent, even response right from the dark bass frequencies to the sparkling highs.
A body built for brilliance
Showcased with a divine ice blue metallic finish, the alder construction of this guitar's body offers tonal and practical qualities in abundance. Whilst the pickups produce a glorious vintage tone, alder enhances your sound with a beautiful immersive feel. Perfect for blues and rock enthusiasts, it has a pronounced upper midrange to give you incredible clarity and still retains full-bodied sonic attributes. But don't be limited, alder is balanced and versatile enough to be pushed hard with a variety of other styles too - you'll always find something new to try and with this guitar you know you'll sound your absolute best. Whether you're practising at home, recording in the studio, or giving it your all on stage, lose yourself in the greatness of the Fender Chrissie Hynde Telecaster. Drift into a world of tonal beauty.
