Fender - Vintera 70s Telecaster Custom Pau Ferro Fingerboard Sonic Blue
For players who want the style and sound of Fender’s golden era we created the Vintera ‘70s Telecaster Custom. Equipped with the coveted features that defined the decade—including period-accurate neck profile and playing feel along with re-voiced pickups—this guitar has all of the articulation and punch that made the Telecaster a legend.
The Fender Vintera series of guitars and basses combine the best features of decades past to create inspiring and authentic testaments to Fender’s history. Fender have also created a range of “Modded” models that offer fresh features on familiar vintage designs.
The Vintera Series replace the previous Mexican made Fender Classic, Classic Player, Baja and Road Worns.
We recreated the pickups to sound more like the ‘70s originals. By combining the vintage-style single-coil bridge pickup with a fat-sounding Wide Range humbucking neck pickup we added some beef to the traditional Tele® bite. The “Slim C”-shaped neck has a 7.25”-radius fingerboard with 21 vintage-style frets for classic feel. A vintage-style Tele® bridge with three chrome barrel saddles gives this Telecaster its characteristic twang while “F”-stamped tuning machines offer period-correct aesthetics classic feel and rock-solid tuning stability. Other features include three-bolt neck plate chrome hardware and vintage-style strap buttons. Includes deluxe gig bag.
