Fender American Vintage 64 Telecaster

Descrizione

The Lake Placid Blue colour scheme of the Fender American '64 Telecaster has been swapped for the (also vintage-correct) Candy Apple Red. Have you always wanted a genuine vintage Tele from the sixties but were you never able to afford one? This American Vintage version might be a new Fender, it still looks, sounds and plays like an original 1964 Tele. What's more, it doesn't cost nearly half as much. This guitar is an exact replica of the original in every conceivable way. For instance, it is equipped with replicas of the renowned Grey Bottom pickups and features a thin layer of genuine nitrocellulose lacquer.

Features of the American Vintage '64 Telecaster CAR

In 1964, Fender replaced the thick maple neck of the Telecaster with a slender C-profile version. Additionally, the fretboard was finished with a rosewood veneer and extra-large mother-of-pearl position markers. The body was made of alder, instead of ash, making this guitar richer on mids. This red Fender American Vintage '64 Telecaster features all of the essential details, including staggered magnets in the bridge pickup, a Top Hat switch tip, a 3-layer white pickguard with 8-hole mounting and three threaded steel bridge saddles so you can adjust the space between the strings.

American Vintage series: more accurate than ever before

The American Vintage series comprises several iconic Fender models from the '50s, '60s and '70s that are vintage-accurate down to the smallest details. To achieve this vintage accuracy, the specs and details of countless original old Fenders have been carefully studied and examined. Fender even brushed off the tools of the period to make the result as authentic as possible. All of the American Vintage series guitars come with an accessory vintage-style case with replica case candy that includes a guitar strap, an instrument cable, a polishing cloth, instruction booklets and pamphlets of the period.
