Fender American Vintage II 1951 Telecaster - Butterscotch Blonde w/ Guitar Cleaning Kit

GLOSS NITROCELLULOSE LACQUER FINISH: Nitrocellulose lacquer, as used on '50s and '60's Fender instruments, is a premium finish that reveals the instrument's true tonal character.

7.25" RADIUS MAPLE FINGERBOARD: The 7.25"-radius fingerboard provides the comfortable playing feel of a vintage instrument, while vintage-tall frets make it easier to bend notes without fretting out.

PURE VINTAGE '51 TELECASTER PICKUPS: Specially voiced to reproduce the authentic sound and performance of individual model years, Pure Vintage pickups are constructed just like pickups from Fender's golden years. Materials include cloth-covered wire, fiber bobbins and alnico magnets.

1951 'U'-SHAPE NECK: In vintage years, the shape and thickness of Fender guitar necks varied tremendously. The American Vintage II Series offers a variety of authentic neck profiles from Fender's past.

EVERYTHING YOU NEED IN ONE BOX: This bundle includes a premium molded hardshell case to protect your instrument from any outer or inner damage. A hat is included to play your instrument with style. A strap is also included to carry your instrument easily while playing or traveling, and an instrument cable is included so that you can connect and start playing immediately. A guitar cleaning kit including a string cleaner and micro-fibre cloth is included to keep your guitar in mint condition.

The Fender American Vintage II series presents a remarkably accurate take on the revolutionary designs that altered the course of musical history. Built with period-accurate bodies, necks and hardware, premium finishes and meticulously voiced, year-specific pickups, each instrument captures the essence of authentic Fender craftsmanship and tone. Deceptively simple and totally ground-breaking, 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 finished in Butterscotch Blonde to capture the tone and look of the original. The substantial '51 "U"-shaped hard rock maple neck plays like a dream with a 7.25" radius fingerboard and vintage tall frets. 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 triple brass saddle bridge, single-line "Fender Deluxe" tuners and Pure Vintage '51 Telecaster pickups deliver classic twang and authentic Fender style.
