Product information "Fender® American Vintage II 1951 Telecaster® Left-Hand, Maple Fingerboard, Butterscotch Blonde"
The Fender® American Vintage II series presents a remarkably faithful reinterpretation of the revolutionary designs that changed the course of music history. Built with historically correct bodies, necks and tuning machines, top-tier finishes and the utmost attention to tone, with era-specific pickups, every instrument captures the essence of the most authentic Fender craftsmanship and tones.
Just one year after the launch of the Broadcaster®, Fender received a cease-and-desist telegram from the Fred Gretsch Mfg. Co. and found itself having to rename its flagship electric guitar. Drawing inspiration from the disruptive growth and widespread reach of television, the first blackguard Telecaster rolled off the production line in 1951, and the model has remained in continuous production ever since. Deceptively simple and utterly revolutionary, the Telecaster® brought the solid-body electric guitar to the masses, inspiring countless musicians along the way.
The American Vintage II 1951 Telecaster features an ash body with Butterscotch Blonde finish to capture the tone and look of the original. The solid hard maple neck with '51 "U" profile offers maximum playability, with a 7.25" radius fingerboard and vintage-height frets. A hallmark of 1951 production, the 12th-fret dot inlay spacing is closely set, and the only Phillips-head screw on the guitar is on the truss rod nut. The three-brass-saddle bridge, "Fender Deluxe" in-line tuning machines and Pure Vintage '51 Telecaster pickups deliver the classic twang and authentic Fender style.
American Vintage II series instruments are the direct descendants of the original Fenders: designed for musicians who truly appreciate vintage Fender tone and response, they are built with unmatched quality, down to the very last screw. These are Fender electrics in their purest form: Fender American Vintage II, the stuff legends are made of.
