Fender MIJ Traditional 50s Telecaster, Butterscotch Blonde Overview
The Fender MIJ Traditional 50s Telecaster will whisk you to a world of vintage tone. This unique, rare, and premium guitar has been made in Japan - a country revered for its exceptional guitar craftsmanship. You can expect this beauty to play like a dream, with a 'U'-shaped maple neck ensuring you can easily hook your thumb around the back and get stuck into your playing. It's also set up to perfection, so the action is brilliant and the finer details immaculate.
Vintage tones erupt from the bespoke Vintage-Style Single-Coil Tele pickups, which have that classic twang and low output synonymous with '50s-era guitars. They're also superbly dynamic, with a responsive five-way pickup switching system and tone controls. Then there's the 3-saddle Vintage-Style strings-through-body Tele bridge, which will keep your tuning rock-steady. This is everything you love about the Telecaster, and more.
