The Fender American Vintage II 1951 Telecaster has been closely modelled after the first real electric Tele to guarantee that original fifties-style look, sound and feel. Coated in high-quality nitrocellulose lacquer, the solid ash body has a little extra room to breathe and resonate, giving this model a more organic natural sound compared to guitars finished with more modern lacquers. The American Vintage II 1951 Telecaster: Authentic Look and Feel Besides the period-correct body shape and timeless aesthetics, this Tele brings all the feels. The maple neck has been finished with exactly the same U-profile as the original '51 model, which always had a snug feel, especially in larger hands. The fretboard has also been given a classic 7.25 inch radius supporting a more rounded grip, while the set of twenty-one Vintage Tall frets complete some truly authentic playability. The Sustain & Twang of Pure Vintage '51 Single-Coil Tele Pickups The string-through-body Pure Vintage 3-Saddle Tele bridge is not just the perfect match for the look and sound of the extra-special model, but guarantees a nicely sustained, twangy foundation that's amplified by two exclusively-designed single-coils. The Pure Vintage '51 Tele Pickups come alongside a set of a standard-issue pots so you can effortlessly dial in the full spectrum of renowned, old-school Tele profiles and, last but not least, this superb Fender offering comes pre-packed inside a vintage-style tweed case furnished with a deluxe red interior.
