Fender Introduces the Telecaster Thinline Super Deluxe

Scottsdale, AZ (November 1, 2012) – The Fender Telecaster has sported many looks for over 60 years, but none as elegant as the new limited edition Telecaster Thinline Super Deluxe.

Available in Black and Olympic White, this stunning Tele’s appointments include a resonant semi-hollow basswood body with double binding and a single f hole, matching painted headstock, 7.25”-radius bound rosewood fingerboard with pearloid block inlays, and a scorching pair of Fideli’Tron humbucking pickups.

Other premium features include a modern C-shaped maple neck with bone nut, 21 wide vintage-style frets, three- way blade switching with “top hat” switch tip, single-ply pickguard (gold on Olympic White model; silver on Black model), gold (Olympic White model) and chrome (Black model) hardware, vintage-style Stratocaster hard-tail bridge, three-bolt “F”-stamped neck plate with Mictro-Tilt adjustment

on 12/13/2012 		Well I received my tele deluxe and have to say guys and gals, save your money and DON"T get one!! Here's why: Cheap bridge (Squire?), plastic switch, dime size pots, cheap plastic composite binding on neck. Good point: plays good,pickups are great,probably worth about $450.00. Fender Japan, shame on you!!

on 11/08/2012 		I like it! I'd love to see it in transparent orange with gold haedware. Seems like Fender has some cool stuff for the Japanese market that's not available in the US. A few years ago, Fender Japan had a thinline Tele with a Tele bridge and bridge pickup, a Tele neck pickup in the middle position, and a Fender '70's-style humbucker in the neck position. They built one to my specs and didn't know it...I'd buy one in a heartbeat if they were available over here!

on 11/04/2012 		Fender Japan has been making a premium version of this guitar for a while now...l mean; exactly the same....both the black & the white versions...i'd say with the fidelitron pups it'll be a mexican model.... the Japanese model has TV Jones filtertrons sells for about $2400 in Japan.

on 11/03/2012 		Cool that they built this to have a real tele feel - with a 7.25" radius fretboard, that is - to offset a certain Gretsch-y sparkle to the guitar. If it comes with a V-shaped neck, so much the better. I am not sure I like the pickguard shape, but those are always tricky. As complaints go, that would be a minor one. So a major complaint would be the price, which we would surely know if it were not embarrassing. Fender lately has lost its edge on pricing, with ever-more new releases coming with price tags that target the vampire plutocracy that sucks the life force from the rest of the world.
