Description

Fender American Vintage II 1963 Telecaster Rw Crimson Red Transparent

The Fender® American Vintage II series presents a particularly accurate re-examination of the revolutionary designs that changed the course of music history. Crafted with historically accurate bodies, necks, and hardware, high-class finishes, and with the utmost attention to tone, featuring year-specific pickups, each instrument captures the essence of authentic Fender craftsmanship and tonality. In 1963, a new combination of woods united the punch and focus of alder with the added warmth of a round-lam (concave-bottom) rosewood fretboard, enhancing the unmistakable Tele® "twang." With Pure Vintage '63 Telecaster® pickups, a bridge with three threaded steel saddles, and a comfortable "C"-profile maple neck, the American Vintage II 1963 Telecaster reproduces the sound & feel that are the quintessence of the original. Characteristic of 1963 production, this Tele stands out for its "clay dots" (closely spaced at the 12th fret), a 7.25" radius fretboard, and is offered in three colors: Crimson Red Transparent on mahogany and 3-Color Sunburst or Surf Green on alder.

American Vintage II series instruments are direct descendants of original Fenders: designed for musicians who truly appreciate vintage Fender tones and response, they are built with inimitable quality, down to the last screw. These are Fender electrics in their purest form: Fender American Vintage II, this is what legends are made of.
