The Story Of The Infamous Telecaster

Just one year after launching the Broadcaster, Fender received a cease-and-desist telegram from the Fred Gretsch Mfg. Co. and was faced with renaming its flagship electric guitar. Taking inspiration from the booming growth and expansive reach of television, the first blackguard Telecaster rolled off the line in 1951, and the model has been in continuous production ever since. Deceptively simple and totally groundbreaking, the Telecaster brought the solid body electric guitar to the masses, inspiring countless musicians along the way.

From The Web:

The Fender American Vintage II 1951 Telecaster is a spot-on re-creation of the '51 Tele, which was the first electric guitar to roll off Fender's assembly line bearing the "Telecaster" name. Built from a slab of solid ash, this axe delivers a bright, sustaining acoustic tone, which is complemented by a set of year-specific Pure Vintage '51 Telecaster single-coil pickups. You'll be blown away by the substantial playability of the '51 Telecaster's U-shaped hard-rock maple neck, while its vintage-radius fingerboard ensures inspiring, comfortable fretting. The American Vintage II 1951 Tele is chock-full of period-correct appointments, including knurled dome knobs, a 3-barrel bridge, vintage-style tuning machines, and an eye-grabbing nitrocellulose lacquer finish on the body and neck. The American Vintage II 1951 Telecaster represents an important piece of Fender history — it's a must-have for every Tele connoisseur.

Loads of period-accurate appointments

The American Vintage II 1951 Telecaster is a spot-on re-creation of a Fender classic. This electric guitar features a solid ash body. This resonant wood offers a bright acoustic tone with excellent sustain and loads of midrange "pop," plus it boasts a gorgeous gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish. The 1951 Tele's nickel/chrome hardware includes a 3-barrel bridge with brass saddles, vintage-style tuning machines, and knurled dome knobs. Year-specific '51 Pure Vintage pickups, a period-correct neck shape, and vintage-radius fingerboard round out the American Vintage II 1951 Telecaster's classic appointments.

Year-specific Pure Vintage pickups

When you plug the Fender American Vintage II 1951 Telecaster into your favorite amplifier, you'll be transported straight back to '51. This solidbody electric guitar's Pure Vintage '51 Telecaster single-coil pickups churn out the tight lows and balanced mids you'd expect from an old-school Tele. And its bridge pickup twangs like it's nobody's business. The American Vintage II 1951 Tele comes complete with master volume and tone knobs, plus a 3-way pickup selector switch.

Substantially playable neck

When we first picked up the American Vintage II 1951 Telecaster here at Sweetwater, we were blown away by its epically substantial playability. The '51 Tele's 1-piece, U-shaped, hard-rock maple neck offers baseball-bat-like dimensions — thick, beefy, and resonant — for a hand-filling playing experience. You also get a maple fingerboard with a vintage 7.25-inch radius and 21 vintage-tall frets. The neck features a vintage tint, and it's finished with eye-catching gloss nitrocellulose lacquer.
