Overview

Vintage Fender style and tone, with a duo of 51’ single-coil Tele pickups.

The Fender American Vintage II 1951 Telecaster left-handed electric guitar features an ash body finished 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. Comes with a vintage-style tweed case with a crushed red interior.

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.

Features
