A limited and discontinued FSR (Factory Special Run) \"Made in Japan\" model rarely seen outside its country of origin, this Tele boasts exceptional fit and finish work and a pair of Wide Range humbuckers. These pickups are fat and full-sounding while retaining a distinctive top end character, and the semi-hollow ash body provides both midrange punch and a certain airy quality. Featherweight at 7lbs 2oz, we've had this Tele professionally setup here at Mike \u0026amp; Mike's Guitar Bar and dialed in with 10-46 strings, slinky action, and spot-on intonation.\n\nThe maple neck has a round, chunky U-shaped profile carve with generous shoulder and lightly rolled fretboard edges measuring .865\" deep at the 1st fret and .930\" at the 12th. On the thick slab 7 1\/4\" radius rosewood fretboard, the original slender frets retain their full factory height, showing light wear beneath the plain strings on the crowns of frets 1-7. The guitar plays well in all registers up the 25 1\/2\" scale with a straight neck and responsive, optimally adjusted truss rod. The nut measures 42.5mm in width (just shy of 1 11\/16\"), and the headstock retains the original Kluson-style tuning machines which turn smoothly and hold pitch well.\n\nThe electronics function as intended, with Master Volume and Tone knobs governing the Wide Range humbuckers. Hardware includes the pair of flat-topped knurled knobs and a six-saddle string through body bridge, and plastics comprise a three-ply black pickguard which shows some light pick scuffing on the treble side. Wear on the bright Arctic White gloss finish is limited to some finish scratches on the lower bout on the back, while the gloss on the neck profile is pristine.\n\nA faux leather form fit gigbag is included.","brand":"Fender","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42461633478912,"sku":"JD17000974","price":1699.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/4437\/4714\/products\/medium_ab26fa71-df48-4f7f-af15-f00d0b85b246.jpg?v=1751522717","url":"https:\/\/mmguitarbar.com\/products\/2017-fender-telecaster-thinline-72-vintage-reissue-fsr-ash-body-arctic-white-w-wide-range-humbuckers-japan-mij","provider":"Mike \u0026 Mike's Guitar Bar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
