Here for sale we have a Fender Limited Edition Vintera '70s Telecaster in Lake Placid Blue finish. Built in Mexico in 2022 this guitar features a bolt on neck construction comprising an Alder body, a 'C' profile Maple neck and a 7.25" radius Pau Ferro fingerboard with 21 vintage-style frets. Other features include a 3-saddle bridge and in keeping with the ‘70s style a set of Fender Vintage ‘F’ stamped tuners, 70’s style logo and an ‘F’ stamped neck plate. Equipped in this guitar are a pair of Custom Shop Twisted Tele single coil pickups, wired faithfully to master volume & tone controls and a 3-way blade switch with a vintage-accurate switch tip.
The gloss finish Vintage 'C' profile neck plays well, feeling well balanced in the hand across a wide range of playing styles. The Vintage ‘C’ is a little slimmer than the typical ‘C’ shaped neck making this especially comfortable. The Vintage style fret wire in conjunction with the 7.25" fingerboard radius offers a very traditional feel, with the slightly wider than average nut width feeling robust under the fingers. The Pau Ferro fingerboard offers a smooth playing surface.
The Custom Shop Twisted Tele single coils offer the classic twangy tone you know and love, with a sweet and warm low end on the neck pickup with excellent clarity, while the bridge pickup offers plenty of bite, with a mid-pushed voicing that really cuts through a mix. This Vintera Telecaster is a fantastic example of Fender mastering the art of producing guitars which will appeal to both purists and those looking for a more modern playing experience.
