Stunning rich finishes, cream body / neck binding, and contemporary features differentiates this Fender Set Neck Tele FMT electric guitar apart from many of the traditional Fender Telecasters built since the 1950’s. While the coil splitting volume pot allows for traditional Telecaster ® tones Fender is known for, this Fender Set Neck Custom Telecaster FMT covers many more tonal landscapes. This Set Neck Tele easily recreates tones found in genres from Rock, Pop, Metal, Alternative, Hard Core, Disco, Gospel, Hip Hop, Soul, Blues, Funk, Southern Rock, and even Country (and Western). Many various construction methods and ingredients including the Indian Laurel fingerboard mahogany neck glued into a mahogany body with a carved flamed maple top and string through body lend to the deep rich tones and notes that are able to sustain for ‘days’. The 2 USA made Seymour Duncan® Humbucker’s are wired in series for maximum thick compressed output associated. However, the volume knob also doubles as a switch to allow the 2 Humbucker’s to sound similar to a snappy single coil pickup more associated with the Fender Telecaster. The 22 jumbo metal frets, flat Indian Laurel fingerboard radius, ‘C’ shaped neck, belly cut bevel in the back of the mahogany body allow for comfortable chording, expressive bends while and smooth fit when sitting or using a strap. The large skinny neck strap buttons ensure that your strap stays on your guitar during even the most expressive performances. Buy with confidences as Fender’s long history as the leader in musical instruments for all levels of musicians from recording studios to the largest of stages. Countless recordings since the 1950’s use Fender instruments to create songs. This Fender Telecaster will provide decades of enjoyment and may even be used for the next hit song!
