About Fender American Vintage II 1977

What you're looking at is the Fender American Vintage II 1977 Telecaster Custom Electric Guitar, a stunning recreation of a classic that changed the music world. This instrument is a testament to the revolutionary designs of the Fender American Vintage II series, meticulously crafted with period-accurate bodies, necks, and hardware. It boasts premium finishes and year-specific pickups, capturing the essence of authentic Fender craftsmanship and tone.

The Telecaster Custom was one of Fender's first ventures into the realm of humbucking pickups. This model features a 3-way toggle located on the upper bout, along with dual volume and tone controls mounted on an elongated, stylish pickguard. The American Vintage II 1977 Telecaster Custom faithfully reproduces the iconic tone and feel of the original.

This Telecaster is equipped with a Wide Range humbucking pickup in the neck position and a Pure Vintage '77 single-coil Tele pickup in the bridge position. The authentic Wide-Range humbucking pickup is made possible by the resurrection of CuNiFe magnets, essential for recreating the original's sonic qualities.

The American Vintage II 1977 Telecaster Custom offers a dream-like playing experience, thanks to its '77 "C"-shape hard rock maple neck. It features a 7.25" radius fingerboard, available in either maple or rosewood, and vintage tall frets. Other notable features include a Tele bridge with 6 slotted steel barrel saddles, "F" stamped tuners, a convenient "Bullet" style truss rod nut, and a three-bolt neck plate with Micro-Tilt mechanism.

Available in three finish options: Olympic White, 3-Color Sunburst, and Wine Red, all over an alder body. Alder is known for its well-balanced tone, beefy mids, and robust low-end. The 7.25"-radius fingerboard provides the comfortable playing feel of a vintage instrument, while vintage-tall frets make it easier to bend notes without fretting out.

The American Vintage II Series offers a variety of authentic neck profiles from Fender's past. The Pure Vintage '77 Single-Coil Tele and Authentic CuNiFe Wide-Range Humbucking Pickups are specially voiced to reproduce the authentic sound and performance of individual model years. The vintage-style hardware, from the bridge to the string tree and tuning machines, is manufactured to look, sound, and function just like the originals.

The Fender American Vintage II 1977 Telecaster Custom Electric Guitar is a direct descendant of the original Fenders, designed for players with a deep appreciation for vintage Fender tone and feel. These are Fender electrics in their purest form: Fender American Vintage II, the stuff of legends.
