Fender introduces revamped Vintage Hot Rod series. Fender’s Vintage-Hot Rod ‘50s Telecaster features an ash body, maple neck with “D”-shaped profile, vintage-style heel-end truss rod adjustment, satin back finish, compound-radius maple fingerboard with 21 6105 frets, bone nut and gloss finish. Its versatile full-voiced tone comes from a Fender Wide Range Special humbucking neck pickup and a sparkling single-coil Broadcaster bridge pickup.
Fender’s Vintage Hot Rod ’50s Telecaster gives you the best Tele tone, style and performance of both eras — authentically vintage-style design touches straight from the 1950s and hot-rodded modern mods ideal for today’s players.
