Electric Guitars Fender Vintera ’60s Telecaster Bigsby In 3-Color Sunburst

VINTAGE STYLE FOR THE MODERN ERA
For players who want the style and sound of Fender’s classic years, they’ve created the Vintera ‘60s Telecaster Bigsby. Equipped with the coveted features that defined the decade – including period-accurate neck profile, re-voiced pickups and cool-looking Bigsby tremolo – this guitar has all of the growl and twang that made the Telecaster a legend.

Fender recreated the pair of ‘60s single-coil Telecaster pickups to sound more like the originals. Twangy and articulate, they have the crisp, snarling tone that put Fender on the map. The thick, fat-shouldered “Early ‘60s C”-shaped neck has a 7.25”-radius fingerboard with 21 vintage-style frets for classic playing feel. A Bigsby vibrato allows for expressive vibrato effects without compromising the characteristic Tele twang, while vintage-style tuning machines provide original-era aesthetics, rock-solid performance and tuning stability. Other features include four-bolt neck plate , chrome hardware and vintage-style strap buttons. Includes deluxe gig bag.
