October 8, 2008 (Scottsdale, AZ) -- Fender has announced yet another signature model to add to their plethora of guitars. This time, Jim Adkins, Jimmy Eat World''s lead singer/guitarist, and Fender have developed another take on the Telecaster - the JA-90.
The JA-90 features a mahogany neck set into a semi-hollow ash body, Seymour Duncan Soapbar pickups, independent volume and tone controls, an Adjusto-Matic bridge and anchored tailpiece. While it features some of the standard Tele options, it does include new specifics thought up by Fender and Adkins; Jim Adkins signature on back of headstock, black plastic parts, knurled dome knobs, white pearloid dot position inlays, graphite nut and oversized strap buttons.
