The Fender Vintera III series delivers meticulously crafted vintage recreations that capture the authentic look, feel, and tone of iconic Fender guitars from the '50s, '60s, and '70s.

The Limited Edition Vintera III Early '60s Custom Telecaster features a double-bound alder body, paired with a maple neck and rosewood fingerboard to deliver that unmistakable Fender sound brimming with punch and crystal-clear articulation. The authentic early '60s “C”-shaped neck profile offers an instantly familiar playing experience, while the 7.25" radius fingerboard with vintage-tall frets ensures supreme comfort and outstanding feel. At its heart, two meticulously crafted vintage-style 1963 spec'd pickups capture the bright, cutting tones that established Fender's reputation during this pivotal era. The vintage-style 3-saddle bridge with threaded steel saddles offers authentic '60s twang, while period-correct vintage-style tuning machines deliver authentic looks with superior tuning precision.

Embrace the authentic vintage spirit and legendary sound of Vintera III – where every detail tells the story.

Double-Bound Alder Body

A classic Fender tonewood, alder delivers balanced and lively tone with beefy mids and robust low-end, while elegant double binding adds sophisticated visual appeal and premium appointments.

Maple Neck With 7.25" Radius Round-Laminate Rosewood Fingerboard And Vintage Tall Frets

The round-laminate rosewood fingerboard adds sonic warmth and the 7.25” radius fingerboard provides vintage comfort and feel, while vintage-tall frets provide slightly more height than vintage for big bends and wide vibrato.

Early- ‘60s “C” Shaped Neck

Based on a mid-'60s "C” profile, this comfortably rounded "C" is slim at the nut and gradually thickens toward the 12th fret for an intuitive and inviting feel.

Vintage-Style 1963 Pickups

There’s really nothing like the timeless singing, snapping, screaming and sparkling sound of Fender single-coil pickups. These 1963 spec pickups are full of the crystal-clear chime and raw, steely twang that made Fender instruments famous.

Vintage-Style 3-Saddle Bridge With Threaded Steel Saddles

Featuring a classic 3-saddle bridge with rock-solid string-through-body design and three threaded steel saddles for authentic ‘60s Tele twang.
