Fender American Original ’50s Telecaster Electric Guitar Butterscotch Blonde
This is the Fender American Original ’50s Telecaster. The American Original takes the appearance of the Telecaster in its classic Butterscotch Blonde finish and gives it a modern tweak with vintage-tall frets and a 9.5″ radius.
The pickups are Pure Vintage ’52 Single-Coils, made as period-correct as possible from the enamel-coated coil wire to the cloth-covered output wires, fiber bobbins and alnico 3 magnets. The steel base plates are copper-plated, while the pickups’ pole pieces are flush-mounted like the originals.
Other authentic touches include vintage-tall frets, original-era body radii, vintage style hardware—including three brass barrel saddles—vintage-style hardshell case and a lacquer finish that not only lets the wood “breathe” naturally with resonant tone, but ages naturally as well.
Includes: Hardshell Case, Case Candy and Paperwork
