2011 Fender MIJ Richie Kotzen Telecaster TLR-RK LTD *RARE 1 of 90* Piano Black w/ DiMarzio Pickups, Drop D Tuner, Modern Control Layout  - Classic Twang Meets Heavy Blues-Rock Swagger

This 2011 Fender MIJ Richie Kotzen TLR-RK LTD Telecaster is the kind of guitar that doesn’t just walk the line between vintage soul and modern muscle—it defines it. Cloaked in a slick black finish the original owner has added a black pearloid pickguard, classic tele control plate, and Hipshot Drop D Extender. It balances show-stopping looks with pro-level utility. Richie’s influence is all over this one, from the chunky maple neck with serious sustain, to the quick-flick Drop D tuner on the low E—perfect for shifting gears into big riff territory mid-song without breaking a sweat. Comfortable modern tele contours make this a guitar you’ll turn to night after night.

Loaded with a DiMarzio Chopper T bridge humbucker, Twang King neck pickup, and clever push-push tone control, you’ve got access to searing lead tones, throaty midrange punch, and vintage sparkle all at your fingertips. Tap the push-push, and you're simultaneously tapping the bridge pickup and bringing in the neck for that timeless Tele twang—ideal for switching between verse jangle and chorus muscle on the fly. The electronics are perfectly clean, and the switching is silent, crisp, and confident—exactly what you want in a gig-ready, studio-worthy axe.

Fresh off our bench, this Tele has received the full pro treatment. The frets have been dressed, crowned, and polished to perfection for silky bends and glassy vibrato. Action is dialed in for easy, expressive play across the board. The polyfoam hardshell case means it's safe and ready to travel, whether you're jumping on a tour bus or heading to a jam session. Whether you’re a tone chaser, a session vet, or a Kotzen devotee, this one’s ready to push boundaries—and look good doing it.
