Fender 75th Anniversary American Vintage II '51 Nocaster Blonde

For 75 years, the Telecaster has shaped the sound of modern music, and few instruments represent its earliest history quite like the Nocaster.

Built to commemorate that milestone, the 75th Anniversary American Vintage II 1951 Nocaster faithfully recreates the brief moment between the Broadcaster and the Telecaster, when Fender shipped guitars with no model name on the headstock at all.

The result is a historically accurate tribute to one of the most collectible and influential electric guitars ever made. Finished in Nocaster Blonde with Fender's exclusive Heirloom Nitrocellulose Lacquer, this limited edition model arrives with the look and feel of a well-preserved vintage original. The substantial 1951 "U" shaped one-piece maple neck, 7.25" radius fingerboard, vintage-style hardware, and period-correct construction deliver an authentic early-'50s playing experience, while the specially voiced 75th Anniversary Blackguard pickups provide the raw twang, punch, and clarity that defined the original Blackguard era.

Every detail, down to the narrow 12th fret dot spacing and serialized brass saddle bridge, reflects Fender's commitment to historical accuracy.
