The left handed Fender American Vintage II 1951 Telecaster presents an accurate take on the classic model of '51. It features a period correct body, neck, and hardware, and hosts meticulously voiced, year-specific pickups to capture the essence of the iconic model in Fender's history.
Its ash body is finished in the classic Butterscotch Blonde finish, complete with a Gloss Nitrocellulose Lacquer, capturing the tone, look and feel of the original. Married to the body is a '51 "U" shaped hard rock maple neck with a 7.25" radius fingerboard set with 21 vintage tall frets and black dot inlays. Characteristic of production in 1951, 12th fret face-dot spacing is narrow and the sole Phillips-head fastener on the guitar is at the truss rod nut.
The guitar comes loaded with Pure Vintage '51 Telecaster pickups wired through traditional master volume and tone controls and a 3-way pickup selector, giving you access to those much loved Tele tones, full of classic twang, bite and authentic Fender vintage tone.
Other appointments include a triple brass saddle bridge, Fender Deluxe tuners, a bone nut, and a 1-ply black pickguard.
The guitar comes complete vintage style Tweed hard case with crushed red interior.
