NEW Fender Vintera Modified Telecaster 50s Loaded Body, Surf Green with Custom Shop Tele Pickups, 4-Way Switching, S 1 switch, and Black Pickguard (optional soft case gig bag)

(Note: This is one of two separate bodies I’m selling. Both are BRAND NEW, but Reverb only lets authorized dealers list items as new, so I am marking it as “mint.“.)

This is a brand new Fender Vintera Telecaster Modified 50s guitar body in surf green with custom shop pickups, four-way switching, and an S1 switch. Full specs are below.

I just bought it brand new (straight from the Fender factory box) and removed the neck for a partscaster project. So the body is literally brand new and then the exact condition it arrived from Fender. It’s only been in my smoke-free home for a few days.

The brand new, never-used genuine Fender gigbag soft case in the last two photos is optional. Add $30 if you would like that included. The body could ship even more safely in that.

Thanks!

Custom Shop pickups deliver hot-rodded Tele twang

Twangy and articulate, the Fender Vintera '50s Telecaster Modified comes armed with a killer set of Tim Shaw-designed Custom Shop single-coil pickups. In the neck, you’ll find a Twisted Tele. This unique pup borrows the taller Alnico V magnets from Fender's Jazz Bass pickups, providing the added bobbin space for thicker gauge wire for a hotter, brighter, and punchier sound that's almost Strat-like. In the bridge, you’ll find a hot-wound vintage-style pickup with Alnico II and III magnets, Formvar-coated wire, and staggered beveled pole pieces — everything you need to reproduce the crisp, snarling sound that made the original Tele so versatile. As if that's not enough Tele tone to make anyone happy, the Vintera '50s Telecaster Modified augments the standard 3-way switching with 4-way switching and an S-1 switch. Series wiring makes this Tele sound fat, like a humbucking pickup, while the S-1 switch places the pickups out of phase with each other for a cool “strangled” tone.
