Always wanted the feel and tone of an authentic, American-Made Telecaster from the 1960s? Now is your chance with the new Fender American Original series, in a gorgeous Burgundy Mist Metallic finish, to set a new benchmark for affordable vintage axes.

Return of the 1960s Telecaster

One of the most versatile electric guitars of all time, the Fender Telecaster is known as the ultimate workhorse guitar due to its flexible tonal options, great style and smooth playing feel.

Moving into the 1960s, Rosewood fingerboards became the standard with the release of the Telecaster Custom which also featured a double-bound body and a 3-ply pickguard.

With the American Original '60s Telecaster, Fender have combined period accurate sound and style from the '60s with modern, fast-playing performance and pickup switching.

Fender American Original '60s Telecaster in Burgundy Mist Metallic Key Features:

  • Alder Body with Lacquer Finish
  • Two Pure Vintage '64 Gray-Bottom Single-Coil Tele
  • Mid-60s "C"-Shaped Neck Profile
  • 9.5"-Radius Fingerboard
  • Vintage-Style Hardware; Telecaster Bridge with Three Steel Saddles
  • Includes Vintage-Style Hardshell Case

Creating the American Original '60s Telecaster

Alder has been used to craft the iconic Telecaster body and it has been double bound for an extra secure build and a great look, while its cutaway design allows for easy reach of the higher frets – essential for guitar solos, lead guitar and other adventurous styles.

The Maple neck has a mid-60s "C" shaped profile providing a comfortable grip for your fretting hand and features a modern 9.5" radius round-laminated Rosewood fretboard while sporting Vintage Tall size frets - another nod to this incredible guitar's legendary origins.

The gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish on the American Original '60s Telecaster is another great feature as it allows the wood to "breathe" naturally with resonant tone while also aging in a distinctive and extremely appealing way.

Vintage Style Hardware and Electronics

On the body of the guitar is a three-saddle vintage-style Tele bridge featuring slotted steel saddles like you'd expect from a real 1960s Telecaster.

The strings-through-body design of the bridge enhances sustain so the American Original '60s Telecaster will really sing.

Up on the headstock, you'll find six Pure Vintage Single Line "Fender Deluxe" tuning machines allowing you to precisely, and securely tune your strings while they add an extra bit of vintage aesthetic to this gorgeous guitar.

Retaining the legendary sound of a true 1960s Fender Telecaster, the Pure Vintage '64 Single-Coil Tele pickups are as period-correct as possible.

From their enamel-coated coil wire and cloth-covered output wires to the fibre bobbins and Alnico 5 magnets – these amazing pickups really give you that authentic '60s Fender sound.

The bridge pickup has a copper shielding plate which adds a little extra sizzle to your tone while the pole pieces have been staggered to ensure balanced volume across all the strings.

A three-way pickup selector switch allows you to choose how you'd like to use the pickups:

Position 1. Bridge Pickup
Position 2. Bridge and Neck Pickup
Position 3. Neck Pickup
You can further adjust your overall output by way of Master Volume and Master Tone control knobs. With his many tonal options, it's no wonder why the Fender Telecaster remains so popular after all these decades.

Includes Hardshell Case

The Fender American Original '60s Telecaster even comes with a deluxe hardshell case with a black interior – the perfect way to store your guitar and protect it on your way to gigs.

With its authentic features such as the accurate 1960s design, vintage-style hardware and incredible electronics, the Fender American Original '60s Telecaster allows you to experience the amazing style and tone that has made Fender such a huge influence on modern music.
