General

The Fender Japan Classic '50s Tele Special is a model that many musicians would undoubtedly like to get their hands on. It has a modern bridge with six steel saddles that give it excellent intonation and sustain. Another notable feature is the Dragster C humbucker in the neck position which offers a warm and mellow sound. In combination with the vintage-style single-coil pickup in the bridge position, this Japanese Fender is highly versatile, giving you everything from the classic Tele twang to heavy rocks sounds.

Classic '50s Tele Special

The body is made of ash, just like most of the original '50s Fenders. This type of wood is ideal for the sound of a Telecaster because of its balanced sound and excellent resonance. The neck is made of a single piece of maple which adds brightness and clarity to the proceedings. The rounded 7.25-inch fretboard radius makes more difficult chords easier to play. Finally, 21 vintage-style frets offer a familiar, reliable and comfortable playing experience.

Fender Japan guitars

Japanese Fenders are high-end instruments that were originally exclusive to the Japanese market. These guitars are highly desirable thanks to the combination of vintage design, modern innovation and a high-quality finish. They offer the same build quality as the professional Fender American Standard models but for a more reasonable price. So if you're looking for an affordable Fender with vintage specs and a remarkable look, order yours today!
