Full Description
View Full DescriptionIsn’t it beautiful?
From strap pin to headstock. This guitar is stunning just to look at, never mind play. As a guitarist, you’re automatically drawn in by the Telecaster body, but you’re kept there by the striking crimson red transparent finish, cream body binding, and oversized abalone dot inlays. The carved maple top of the body shows the FMT Custom Telecaster’s gorgeous grain pattern giving it an aura of luxury and experience. Everything you can see on this guitar embellishes everything you will hear and feel once you’ve picked it up and started playing. Not a lot of guitars master every aspect of design. But you know when Fender do it, it’s something special.
A Tele with more bite
Telecasters look cool. There’s no mistaking that. The FMT Custom Telecaster takes this iconic style and combines it with a pair of Seymour Duncan humbuckers for those players craving a beefier sound. And they certainly offer that. At the neck is a '59 SH-1N which will give you a bright attack with plenty of sustain. This leaves your chords ringing out to their fullest and injects spice into clean sounds making it versatile enough to take on any genre. Then there’s the bridge pickup. A Pearly Gates SH-PG1B gives you a focussed growl that sings at the high end while giving your mid-range extra punch. It’s a combination of champion pickups.
And that’s not all. There’s even more versatility to these humbuckers. Fender have made it so they can be coil tapped meaning you can have a more single coil sound just by triggering the push/pull switch that’s built into the master tone control knob. Go from fat humbucking roars to searing single coil tones to have your crowd screaming with admiration. A world of possibilities lies at your fingertips.
A wealth of playability and quality
Fender excel in playability. And all this expertise shows in the Fender FMT Custom Telecaster’s design. Starting with a gloss finished, modern C shaped mahogany neck to give you a natural feel in the palm of your hand. Then top it with quality. A laurel fretboard provides a smooth, sleek surface for your riffing and chord work to reach their full potential, while the jumbo size frets provide room for greater accuracy. And every note you play will sound pristine. Equipped with a string-through-body hardtail bridge that keeps your strings tuned to perfection, you'll know that your intonation will remain impeccable through hours of performance.
