Up for sale, a 2015 Fender Telecaster Thinline Super Deluxe in near-mint, 100% original condition and in perfect working order. A perfect middle ground between a Fender Telecaster Thinline and a Gretsch Black Falcon, this guitar boasts a semi-hollow body framed in multi-ply binding, complete with chrome-plated hardware, a silver plexi pickguard, and a pair of Gretsch-style Fideli'Tron humbuckers. Both visually and tonally, this is an impressive guitar and a rare, discontinued model produced by Fender Japan, limited to a 150 instrument production run.

At only 7lbs 1oz, this Tele is both lightweight and acoustically resonant, with a natural tone that is snappy and warm. The Fideli'Tron pickups capture the complex midrange and dynamic, rich response of Gretsch's best humbuckers, and the three-way pickup selector switch yields everything from bridge position cut to thick, burly neck pickup roar. Professionally setup here at Mike & Mike's Guitar Bar, this Telecaster Super Deluxe is dialed in with 10-46 strings, low action and accurate intonation.

The Black gloss finish is well-kept, with cosmetic wear limited to a couple tiny dings on the back, and some very faint scuffing in the clear coat where the forearm crosses the top. The satin finish on the neck profile is flawless.

An aftermarket black tolex hardshell case is included (a notable upgrade over the gigbag offered with this model when sold new).
