Description

Highly collectable USA V1 Tele Plus finished in Blue Burst and with a nicely figured top on close inspection. This desirable model was made famous by the likes of Johnny Greenwood (Radiohead) and Gaz Coombes (Supergrass) amongst others. It's in exceptional condition for a 31 year old vintage guitar with only minor signs of wear as pictured - one of the cleanest Tele Plus's we ever seen. Everything works as it should without issue. It has a comfortable Maple neck with medium profile, Rosewood fingerboard, Fender standard tuners and an 6-saddle bridge. The blue single coil and red humbucker lace sensor pickups sound incredible, they provide a much fatter tone that a traditional telecaster single coils, and have quiet operation. You can also coil-split the humbucker using the mini toggle switch for extra versatility. It comes complete with its original Fender hard case to keep it protected.

About Telecaster

The Fender Telecaster, known affectionately as the "Tele," emerged as the first mass-produced solid-body electric guitar, marking a significant milestone in music history. Its straightforward design and innovative sound paved the way for new trends in electric guitar manufacturing and popular music. Since its debut in the 1950s, the Telecaster has been celebrated for its versatility, serving artists across genres from country to jazz, rock, and beyond. Its solid construction, characterized by a single-cutaway body made typically from alder or ash and a bolt-on maple neck, contributes to its distinct, bright, and cutting tone as well as a warm, mellow sound depending on pickup selection. With minor modifications over the years, the Telecaster has remained largely faithful to its original design, featuring two single-coil pickups, a three-way selector switch, and simple volume and tone controls. This enduring design has kept the Telecaster relevant and in continuous production, solidifying its status as a beloved icon in the guitar world.
