Fender Limited Edition American Pro Telecaster in Ocean Turquoise with Roasted Maple Neck
This Limited Edition Fender American Pro Telecaster starts from the production model’s solid foundation, incorporating all the latest innovations which make the American Pro Tele such a great guitar. From this basis, it adds a number of unique features which set it apart. A stunning Roasted Maple neck has been fitted, adding a rich look to the guitar, while simultaneously increasing stability and resonance. Fender have also finished the body in one of our favourite hues, Ocean Turquoise, which combines perfectly with the dark Rosewood fretboard and Tortoiseshell pickguard.
This 2020 LE Tele has also been modified below the surface. In terms of pickups, twin Fender ’51 Nocaster pickups have been fitted. True to their heritage, these are the pickups found on Fender Custom Shop Nocaster® guitars. They have been created with the original design in mind to accurately mimic the twang and shimmer of the original Nocaster guitar. These period-correct single-coil pickups impart tight low end and clear, balanced midrange.
The newly redesigned Telecaster bridge sports three compensated brass barrel saddles for the perfect combination of vintage style with modern feel and performance. Retain high end clarity when adjusting the volume controls, thanks to the new treble-bleed tone circuit that lets your tone shine through in all its glory. The new modern "Deep C”-shaped neck profile feels just right in your hand while the narrow-tall frets make it easy to bend strings accurately and play perfectly intonated chords.
