Description: Fender American Vintage II 1951 Telecaster Ash Body 1-Piece Maple Neck Butterscotch BlondeAMERICAN VINTAGE II 1951 TELECASTER®Model #: 0110312850The Fender® American Vintage II series presents a remarkably accurate take on the revolutionary designs that altered the course of musical history. Built with period-accurate bodies, necks and hardware, premium finishes and meticulously voiced, year-specific pickups, each instrument captures the essence of authentic Fender craftsmanship and tone.Just one year after launching the Broadcaster®, Fender received a cease-and-desist telegram from the Fred Gretsch Mfg. Co. and was faced with renaming its flagship electric guitar. Taking inspiration from the booming growth and expansive reach of television, the first blackguard Telecaster rolled off the line in 1951, and the model has been in continuous production ever since. Deceptively simple and totally groundbreaking, the Telecaster® brought the solid body electric guitar to the masses, inspiring countless musicians along the way.The American Vintage II 1951 Telecaster features an ash body finished in Butterscotch Blonde to capture the tone and look of the original. The substantial ‘51 “U”-shaped hard rock maple neck plays like a dream with a 7.25” radius fingerboard and vintage tall frets. Characteristic of production in 1951, 12th fret face-dot spacing is narrow and the sole Phillips-head fastener on the guitar is at the truss rod nut. The triple brass saddle bridge, single-line “Fender Deluxe” tuners and Pure Vintage ‘51 Telecaster pickups deliver classic twang and authentic Fender style.The instruments in the American Vintage II series are direct descendants of the original Fenders: designed for players with a fine appreciation for vintage Fender tone and feel and built with unmatched quality, down to the last screw. These are Fender electrics in their purest form: Fender American Vintage II, the stuff of legends.ModelFender American Vintage II 1951 TelecasterBuilderFender USAYear2023Body TypeSolid BodyTop WoodN/ABody WoodAshFinish TypeGLOSS NITROCELLULOSE LACQUER FINISHFinish ColorButterscotch BlondeNeck Wood1-Piece MapleFingerboardN/ANeck Carve1951 "U"Scale Length25.5''Neck Dimensions.890'' - .990''Neck Radius7.25" (184.1 mm)Frets21 - vintage tall fretsNut Width1.650" (42 mm)Nut MaterialBoneNeck FinishGloss Nitrocellulose LacquerInlaysBlack DotNeck PickupPure Vintage '51 Single-Coil TeleBridge PickupPure Vintage '51 Single-Coil TelePickguard1-Ply Black PhenolicHardwareNickel/ChromeBridgePure Vintage 3-Saddle Tele® with Brass Barrel Saddles, SerializedTunersPure Vintage Single Line "Fender Deluxe"ControlsMaster Volume, Master Tone, 3-Position BladeCaseVintage-Style Tweed (Crushed Red Interior)Weight8.55 Pounds (8 lbs 9 oz)
