The Fender American Vintage II 1977 Telecaster Custom MN Black symbolizes the era of emerging rock music with a powerful neck humbucker and signature Seventies appointments. An authentic replica of a '77 Tele Custom, the electric guitar naturally comes with the correct appointments in the form of a triple-bolt "micro-tilt" neck with bullet truss rod and an alder body with large pickguard. While in bridge position a Pure Vintage '77 Telecaster Single Coil traditionally delivers crisp twang sounds, the Authentic CuNiFe Wide-Range humbucker provides fat clean and overdrive sounds without denying the typical Fender brilliance. Last but not least, Fender completes the American Vintage II 1977 Telecaster Custom MN Black with the historically accurate 6-saddle Telecaster bridge and tuning stable Pure Vintage "F" Stamped tuners.

For the construction of the American Vintage II 1977 Telecaster, Fender naturally relies on the tonewoods and manufacturing methods of the eponymous vintage. In addition to the alder body, which rests on the body with a stable balance, the electric guitar features a triple-bolted maple neck with the obligatory "micro-tilt" mechanism for adjusting the neck angle. The not too beefy "1977 C" neck profile with classic 7.25" radius (184 mm) also promises comfortable playing characteristics in all positions of the 21-fret maple fingerboard.

The electric sound conversion of the American Vintage II '77 Tele Custom electric guitar naturally adopts the historically authenticated SH setup with a single coil at the bridge and a powerful humbucker in the neck position. The Fender Pure Vintage '77 Telecaster Single Coil elicits classic Telecaster tones with explosive Attack and well-dosed bite from the guitar amp, which also assert themselves optimally in overdrive settings in the Mix. In the neck position, on the other hand, the Authentic CuNiFe Wide-Range Humbucker with historically correct copper-nickel-iron magnets promises rich tones that never lack typical Fender transparency and are suitable not only for soulful cleans, but also for singing lead playing and powerful rhythm work. To be able to precisely adjust the sound character of the American Vintage II '77 Telecaster has a passive 3-way circuit with separate volume and tone pots for each pickup.

Of course, Fender completes the American Vintage II 1977 Telecaster Custom MN Black electric guitar with historically accurate appointments that support the guitar's traditional look while delivering unparalleled reliability. While the Pure Vintage 6-saddle Telecaster bridge supports the guitar's lively tonal character with its string guide through the body, its six independently adjustable steel tailpieces guarantee precise adjustment of intonation and string action. On the headstock, Pure Vintage "F" Stamped tuners also keep the electric guitar stably in tune.
