The Fender American Vintage II 1963 Telecaster is has returned to the spotlight sporting a Vintage Blonde gloss nitrocellulose finish! The American Vintage II series represents period-accurate instruments from Fender's golden era – year specific bodies, necks, hardware, electronics, and finishes. Each guitar in the American Vintage II line is carefully crafted and authentically Fender. This new color addition is sure to make vintage blonde enthusiasts very happy.

This Tele has been expertly crafted to match the feel and specifications of an authentic 1963 Telecaster. Its single-cutaway body is constructed from a Ash body – producing a brighter, balanced sound with good sustain. Not only is it sonically rich, but it also showcases its unique one-of-a-kind wood grain pattern. The body is completed with a 1-ply white pickguard, nickel/chrome hardware, and a gloss nitrocellulose finish. To amplify its voice, a set of Pure Vintage '63 Single-Coil Tele pickups are mounted in the bridge and neck positions. These pickups are crafted with the same cloth-covered wire, fiber bobbins, and alnico magnets Fender used in the '60s. A simple 3-position blade switch and master volume/tone controls make dialing in your sound a breeze.

Bolted to the body by a 4-bolt neck construction, a 1963 "C" shaped maple neck serves as its playing platform. The neck features a period-accurate gloss neck finish. The maple neck is topped by a 7.25-inch radius round-laminated rosewood fingerboard. The board is crowned with 21 vintage tall frets and accented by clay dot position markers. Strings are loaded through the Pure Vintage 3-Saddle Tele bridge with Threaded Steel Barrel Saddles, make contact with the bone nut, and are strung to pitch with the Pure Vintage Single Line "Fender Deluxe" tuning machines at the headstock. Much of the hardware used on the guitar is still manufactured on the original '50s and '60s factory machines. The Tele is packed securely in the included vintage-style brown hardshell case with orange interior.

Made for players with fine appreciation for Fender's rich history, the American Vintage II line is about as Fender as you can get!
