Description
The Fender Vintera III Late '50s Telecaster Maple in Butterscotch Blonde is about as classic as it gets. If you picture a late '50s Tele, this is probably the look you see. It has the traditional feel, the snap, and the straight-ahead layout that made the Telecaster a working musician's tool from the start.
Built with an alder or ash body and a 1-piece maple neck carved into a Late '50s V profile, this one feels substantial without being bulky. The 7.25 inch radius maple fingerboard and 21 vintage tall frets keep the vintage curvature intact. The pair of Vintage-Style Late '50s single-coil Tele pickups deliver that bright, cutting bridge tone and smooth, rounded neck tone that define classic country, early rock, and blues recordings. The 3-saddle vintage-style Tele bridge with barrel steel saddles adds the authentic twang and response you expect.
Vintage-style tuning machines, bone nut, and knurled flat-top control knobs keep everything period-correct and reliable. The 25.5 inch scale length provides that signature Fender snap and tension, and the simple Master Volume and Master Tone controls keep your signal path clean and effective. We like this one because it is the blueprint Tele. No extra frills, just tone and feel that work. A deluxe gig bag is included.
