Up for sale, a 2024 Fender Hybrid II Telecaster in near-mint, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with hangtags. This Hybrid II Telecaster features a deeply figured quilted maple top highlighted by a custom color Red Beryl gloss finish.

The Hybrid II model is one of the finest Tele iterations ever produced by Fender Japan (and a model not available in the USA market), simply stunning in its forward thinking design and player-friendly features. Premium specs include Hybrid II Custom Voiced single coil pickups, parallel/series switching, USA-spec CTS pots, compensated brass saddles, a bone nut, narrow/tall fretwire, locking tuners, and a generous belly carve on the alder body. The neck has a Modern C carve with a 22 fret slab rosewood fretboard, a 9 1/2" radius, and a satin neck profile finish.

The Hybrid II Custom Voiced single coil pickups deliver a bevy of quintessential Tele tonalities; there's chewy twang and sparkle on tap in the bridge position, with a sweet, bell-like neck pickup and a very welcome fourth position on the blade switch, engaging both pickups in series for a particularly big and bold sound. This Hybrid II Telecaster weighs 7lbs 5oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.

The gloss custom color Red Beryl finish is bright and vibrant, highlighting the figuring in the quilted maple top. Cosmetic wear is limited to a bit of faint buckle scuffing central to the back, a couple small dings on the treble side of the back, and a few tiny chips at the lower bout perimeter. The smooth satin finish on the neck profile is pristine.
