The Vintera '50s Telecaster Modified guitar seamlessly blends the past and the future. The Tele boasts the modern Fender tone with Custom Shop pickups designed in a vintage style for true grit and twang. The medium-jumbo frets and the 9.5-inch radius fingerboard provide a comfortable and modern feel. A 'Soft V' neck profile draws inspiration from the 'Late 50's V' neck for a thicker hold for your fretting hand. A unique 'strangled' tone is developed by a series wiring option with the S-1 switch putting pickups out of phase with one another.
