Description
Fender's Custom Shop 1972 Telecaster Deluxe is a top-of-the-line guitar that packs a serious punch. Equipped with a growling pair of Custom Shop '72 wide-range humbuckers, this axe delivers a stellar lineup of classic '70s rock 'n' roll tones. But it isn't just a tonal titan - with its Olympic White finish, Journeyman Relic treatment, and vintage-spec'd hardware, this Telecaster Deluxe is an old-school guitar enthusiast's dream come true.
The Custom Shop 1972 Telecaster Deluxe starts with a 2-piece select alder body coated in a gorgeous Olympic White finish, giving it a killer '70s aesthetic. From there, its Journeyman Relic treatment will catch the eye of guitarists who like a little wear and tear on their instruments. Complete with dings, finish checking, and patina'd hardware, this Tele Deluxe looks identical to a well-gigged, decades-old Fender.
Aside from its bold '70s style, this guitar plays like a dream. Its '60 "C"-shaped maple neck has a nice, neutral feel that's well-suited for both rhythm and lead playing. Plus, this Tele Deluxe's Micro-tilt neck adjuster, Schaller "F" key tuners, and vintage hardtail Strat bridge give it a period-correct appearance and ensure rock-solid performance.
Now, on to the real magic - the pickups. Armed with a pair of '72 wide-range humbuckers, the Custom Shop 1972 Telecaster Deluxe has an incredibly versatile sound. Select the neck pickup for warmth, growl, and depth, or engage the bridge pickup for hot, sizzlin' lead tones - this Tele sounds great no matter how you set it.
Tap into the raw, gritty spirit of Fender's early years with the Fender Custom 1972 Telecaster Deluxe, a masterfully made guitar born for hard, fast riffing. Reach out today to get your hands on this jaw-droppingly cool Tele Deluxe!
