The American Vintage II 1975 Telecaster Deluxe MN Vintage Blonde celebrates the iconic 1970s Telecaster design as it was in 1975. Fitted with two humbuckers, revised body contours and a resonant hardtail bridge, this electric guitar was specifically designed for the hard rock music of that era and remains a popular model amongst alternative and indie rock guitarists to this day. Reason enough, then, for Fender to revive the Telecaster Deluxe as part of the American Vintage II series. Includes a case and certificate!

Following the popular Stratocaster design, the alder body of the Telecaster Deluxe has also been fitted with a belly cut to improve the instrument’s playing comfort, whether played on a strap or on the lap. Also unique to this Telecaster model is the large CBS-era headstock, whilst the modern 9.5-inch fingerboard radius ensures easier bends on the 21 vintage tall frets of the maple fingerboard.

As the sound-producing elements of the Telecaster Deluxe, two classic Fender Pure Vintage Wide Range Humbuckers are, of course, a must. Compared to conventional humbuckers, these two dual-coil pickups with CuNiFe magnets produce a brighter tone with distinct single-coil characteristics and impress with their increased output. Both Wide Range humbuckers are controlled via separate volume and tone controls.

Unlike the traditional ‘ashtray’ bridge found on the Telecaster, the Fender American Vintage II 1975 Telecaster Deluxe is fitted with a Pure Vintage 6-Saddle Hardtail bridge, which provides each string with its own saddle for precise intonation adjustment. Combined with the iconic three-ply pickguard, classic ‘skirted’ control knobs and six Pure Vintage Tele Deluxe tuners, this creates the unmistakable look of the Fender Telecaster Deluxe.
