There's nothing quite like playing a vintage Telecaster. However, there have been design improvements that have taken modern Teles to the next level. The Fender Custom Shop Vintage Custom 1959 Telecaster NOS is an ideal mix of both. Vintage fans will love the guitar's period accurate appointments, such as an off-set body joint, slab rosewood fingerboard, and vintage correct electronics. And modern players will revel in updates such as a 7.25' to 9.5" compound radius fingerboard and Jescar fretwire.

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.
