The American Vintage II series is designed to faithfully replicate the look, feel and tone of some of the most iconic Fender guitar and bass models through-out history. From era correct colours, to specific wiring and pickup choices, these are the best way to get your hands on a vintage-spec Fender without spending Custom Shop prices. This Thinline Telecaster is based on the models from 1972, which was the first full year these guitars went into production as well as it being the first model of guitar Fender produced with 2 humbucking pickups and the first telecaster to have 6 individual adjustable saddles. Fender resurrected the CuNiFe Magnets to use in the pickups of this guitar as they are an essential element of recreating the sonic qualities of the originals. It features a “C” shape hard rock maple neck with vintage tall frets, a semi-hollow Ash Body and era correct tuners and plastics that complete the incredible look of this instrument. Finished in aged natural, this specific tele is a joy to play and will be the perfect addition to any players collection.
