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 Vintera® III Late '50s Telecaster® features an ash or alder body paired with a 1-piece maple neck and maple fingerboard, delivering that unmistakable Fender sound brimming with punch and crystal-clear articulation. The authentic late '50s “V”-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 late '50s spec'd pickups capture the bright, cutting tones that established Fender's reputation during this pivotal era. The vintage-style 3-saddle bridge with steel barrel saddles offers authentic '50s twang while vintage-style appointments deliver classic aesthetics and period-correct tuning machines provide superior tuning precision.

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