Description
The Fender Vintera III Late '50s Telecaster Maple in Sherwood Green Metallic is built for players who want classic Tele bite with a custom color edge. Sherwood Green Metallic gives this late '50s spec Tele a slightly more refined, almost upscale look, but under the hood it is all vintage snap and clarity. If you are chasing articulate rhythm tones, cutting leads, and that unmistakable Tele twang, this one delivers.
Depending on the finish, the body is ash or alder, both paired with a 1-piece maple neck carved into a Late '50s V profile. That V shape has a distinct feel in the hand, substantial but comfortable, especially if you like a little more shoulder on your neck. The 7.25 inch radius maple fingerboard with 21 vintage tall frets keeps everything period-correct. The set of Vintage-Style Late '50s single-coil Tele pickups produce bright, cutting bridge tones and warm, rounded neck sounds that sit beautifully in a mix. The 3-saddle vintage-style Tele bridge with steel barrel saddles brings the authentic '50s snap and response.
Vintage-style tuning machines, a bone nut, and knurled flat-top knobs keep it true to the era. The 25.5 inch scale length gives you that familiar Fender tension and attack, and the straightforward Master Volume and Master Tone layout keeps things simple and effective. We like this one because it blends classic Tele tone with a finish that stands out without straying from tradition. A deluxe gig bag is included.
