Here for sale we have a Fender Highway One Telecaster in Honey Blonde finish. Made in the USA in 2005, this bolt-on neck guitar features an Alder body, a Maple neck and a 22 Medium Jumbo fret Rosewood fingerboard. This guitar is fitted with Chrome hardware including a 3-Saddle Vintage-Style Strings-Through-Body with Chrome Saddles and a set of Fender sealed tuning machines. The pickups featured in this instrument are a pair of Fender Vintage-Style Single-Coils pickups, these are wired to a 3-way toggle switch, master volume and master tone control with a Greasebucket Tone Circuit.
The Maple neck sits comfortably in the hand, with the 'C' profile feeling fast and smooth, whilst the Satin finish to the rear offers effortless transitions into any position. The Maple fingerboard provides a smooth and durable playing surface, and with its 9.5" radius, Medium Jumbo frets offer a perfect marriage between comfortable playability and modern practicality. The single cut-away design provides the player with uninhibited access to the upper register.
The Fender Vintage-Style Tele Single-Coils pickups provide the classic Telecaster tones that have been a staple of modern music for decades. There is plenty of roundness and warmth in the neck and cutting, trebly 'Tele Twang' in the bridge. Clean sounds are glassy and shimmering, whilst driving the amp offers some searing crunch tones. The Greasebucket Tone Circuit rolls off the high end without adding any bass frequencies, as to allow the natural crystalline telecaster tone to be unhindered.

We advise checking the total import cost with Customs as this is not information we are able to accurately provide.
