2018 Fender Traditional ‘70s Telecaster Custom Black Ash Body w/ Wide Range, Japan MIJ

$1,249.99

+ shipping

Up for sale, a 2018 Fender Traditional ‘70s Telecaster Custom in excellent, 100% original condition and in perfect working order. This “Made in Japan” Telecaster Custom faithfully captures the look and feel of a genuine ‘70s example, featuring an ash body and a one-piece maple neck.

With a Wide Range humbucker in the neck position and a traditional Tele single coil at the bridge, this Tele has a very broad tonal spectrum, from thick-yet-articulate tones in the neck position to chiming, twangy single coil cut at the bridge. The middle position is a "best of both worlds" setting, and the two pickups balance well both in terms of output and their respective tonal attributes. Weighing 8lbs, this Telecaster Custom has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
