Description
The Fender American Professional Classic Cabronita Telecaster in Candy Apple Red celebrates the 75th Anniversary of the Tele with a sharp blend of retro attitude and modern refinement. It's a great fit for working musicians and serious players who want a Tele-style guitar with a bit more bite and a whole lot of personality. With a pair of TV Jones pickups under the hood, this version of the Cabronita dials into a very specific tonal zone-articulate, punchy, and loaded with character.
Both the bridge and neck positions are handled by TV Jones TV Classics, which offer a chiming top end and tight low end that responds well to both clean and driven tones. A three-way toggle gives you straightforward switching, and the single volume control keeps things simple. It's a unique setup that delivers a lot of clarity and attitude. The alder body and gloss urethane finish tie it all together with Fender's classic Tele look and feel, while the vintage-style 3-saddle bridge keeps your intonation stable and adds that familiar snap.
The satin-finished Modern "C" maple neck is easy to move around on, and the 9.5" radius fingerboard with medium jumbo frets strikes a nice balance between vintage and modern comfort. With deluxe tuners and a deluxe gig bag included, this is one of those guitars that feels well-thought-out from top to bottom. We've seen this one cover everything from indie and rockabilly to modern country and blues-super versatile and just plain cool.
