Fender American Vintage II 51 Telecaster MN BTB
Product information "Fender American Vintage II 51 Telecaster MN BTB"
The American Vintage II 1951 Telecaster has an ash body to capture the tone and look of the original. The solid 51 "U" shaped hard rock maple neck plays like a dream with its 7.25" radius fingerboard and high vintage frets. Characteristic of the 1951 production is the close spacing of the dots at the 12th fret and the only Phillips screw to be found on the guitar is at the truss rod saddle. The three brass tabs on the bridge, "Fender Deluxe" tuners and Pure Vintage '51 Telecaster pickups ensure classic twang and authentic Fender style.
