Here for sale we have a Fender Limited Edition Classic Series '50s Telecaster Electric Guitar in Lake Placid Blue finish. Made in Mexico in 2017, this guitar consists of an Alder body, a Maple neck, and a 21-fret Maple fingerboard. Other appointments include Fender Vintage-style tuners, a 3-saddle Vintage-style bridge, and Nickel/Chrome hardware. The pickups installed are a Mustang MP90 in the neck, and an American Vintage '58 Single-Coil Tele pickup in the bridge. These pickups are wired to a master volume. master tone, and a three-way pickup selector.

The ‘C’ profile neck in gloss finish plays well, with the 7.25" radius providing a suitably vintage feel to an instrument equipped with so many faithful '50s features. The vintage style frets further enhance this authenticity, and paired with the gloss finished Maple fingerboard provide a comfortable and smooth playing experience. The familiar Telecaster body shape is as comfortable as ever, with well set out controls and '50s style single ply pickguard. 

Amplified, the Mustang MP90 pickup installed in this guitar provides a warm and rich tone in the neck position that sounds glassy and sparkly with clean settings. Rolling back the tone control offers an almost jazzy sound, whilst increasing the gain brings a full and detailed tone for solos. The American Vintage '58 Single-Coil Tele bridge pickup provides all of the Telecaster style twang and bite with searing highs sounds that will cut right through the mix, whilst offering rich and creamy tonalities when dialling the volume back, perfect for blues and country solo tones.
