Fender Deluxe Nashville Telecaster Electric Guitar (Fiesta Red)

A TONAL TRIPLE THREAT

 

Straight from the studios of Music Row in the home of country music—Nashville, TN—comes the Deluxe Nashville Tele, a tonally versatile performer with a unique (for a Tele) three-pickup design. A distinctive entry into the Fender family, this Tele growls, snaps and screams with flexible tone that can match any song. With its original Fender style, customized switching and fast, smooth playing feel, this Tele is ready to command any stage from the local honky-tonk to the Grand Ol' Opry.

 

FEATURES

VINTAGE NOISELESS PICKUPS

These pickups produce all the brilliant pristine, well-defined tone of vintage single-coil pickups, with no hum.

 

12" FINGERBOARD RADIUS

This instrument features a fingerboard radius (the amount of curvature across the width of the fingerboard) that, at 12", is substantially more flattened than both a vintage-style 7.25" radius and a modern 9.5" radius. Feels notably flat even though there’s still slight curvature—great for bending notes without fretting out.

 

UPGRADED MODERN BRIDGES

For superior intonation, sustain and ease of adjustment, Deluxe guitars feature modern bridges with upgraded features. This instrument has a string-through-body bridge with block saddles.

 

LOCKING TUNING MACHINES

This instrument features locking tuning machines for increased tuning stability and easy restringing.

 

FIVE-WAY PICKUP SWITCH

A distinctive three-pickup instrument, the Deluxe Nashville Tele guitar also features five-way pickup switching, delivering a Stratocaster-like control configuration for maximum tonal versatility.

 

PEARLOID DOT INLAYS

The fingerboard of this Telecaster guitar is adorned with elegant pearloid dot inlays.
