Up for sale, a 2024 Fender American Vintage II 1951 Telecaster in like-new condition and in perfect working order, complete with the tweed hardshell case, CoA, and all hangtags and case candy. Fender's most recent American Vintage series iteration on the early '50s "Blackguard" Telecaster, the American Vintage II '51 model boasts a bevy of traditional appointments including a U-shaped neck profile carve with a vintage spec 7 1/4" fingerboard radius, Pure Vintage '51 Telecaster pickups, brass bridge saddles, flathead screws used throughout, and a Butterscotch Blonde nitro lacquer finish

This Telecaster has a distinctive natural heft and rich sustain, with the midrange complexity and note attack inherent in ash as a tonewood. The Pure Vintage '51 single coils have black fiber bobbins, Alnico III magnets (including flush mounted poles on the bridge pickup), push-back cloth-covered leads, and wax potting, all features designed to maximize tone and vintage authenticity. The bridge pickup is chewy and twangy, and the neck has a bell-like fullness. And the modern three-way switch wiring (Bridge, Bridge+Neck, Neck) ensures a vital sound in every pickup position. This Tele weighs 8lbs 6oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.

The Butterscotch gloss nitro lacquer finish has great transparency, highlighting the grain of the ash body. While technically a "used" instrument, there's barely a scratch on the body, and the neck profile is similarly pristine.

The original Fender tweed hardshell case with red poodle interior is included, along with the CoA, and all hangtags and case candy.
