For players who appreciate the mojo of the past matched to modern features, we created the Vintera© ?50s Telecaster© Modified. Blending classic looks with a modern neck profile and fingerboard radius, hotter pickups and updated electronics?this guitar packs a surprising amount of power under the hood.
For modern Fender© tone we included a pair of Custom Shop pickups, kicking things up a bit with a vintage-style bridge pickup and fat-sounding Twisted Tele neck pickup. Twangy and articulate, they have the crisp, snarling sound that put Fender on the musical map. For modern playing feel, we added 21 medium-jumbo frets to the 9.5?-radius maple fingerboard that sits atop the ?Thick Soft V?-shaped neck. A vintage-style Tele© bridge with three brass saddles gives this Telecaster it?s characteristic twang, while 4-way switching and the S-1? switch give you even more tonal variety. Series wiring makes this Tele sound fat, like a humbucking pickup, while the S-1 switch places the pickups out of phase with each other for a cool ?strangled? tone. Other features include vintage-style strap buttons, chrome hardware and 4-bolt neck plate. Includes deluxe gig bag.
