Fender American Ultra Luxe Vintage '60s Telecaster Custom – Lake Placid Blue Heirloom Lacquer

This Fender American Ultra Luxe Vintage '60s Telecaster Custom is in excellent condition, with no wear beyond the factory-applied Heirloom lacquer aging and finish checking. The electronics function flawlessly and the guitar sounds exceptional. This is an incredibly fun and inspiring guitar to play.

Includes the original hardshell case, Certificate of Authenticity, and all case candy shown.

The American Ultra Luxe Vintage '60s Telecaster Custom masterfully blends the timeless look and unmistakable tone of an early-'60s Telecaster with Fender's most advanced modern performance features. Finished in stunning Lake Placid Blue Heirloom Lacquer, the lightly aged nitrocellulose finish delivers the character of a vintage instrument while allowing the alder body to resonate freely for outstanding tone and sustain.

The quartersawn maple neck features Fender's comfortable Modern "D" profile, rolled fingerboard edges, and a silky satin finish that feels effortlessly broken in from the first chord. A compound 10"-14" rosewood fingerboard with stainless steel frets provides exceptional comfort for rhythm playing while allowing smooth bends and effortless lead work higher up the neck. The sculpted neck heel further enhances upper-fret access, making this one of the most playable Telecasters Fender has ever produced.

A pair of Pure Vintage '63 Telecaster single-coil pickups delivers everything players love about a classic Tele—crisp attack, rich midrange, sparkling highs, and unmistakable twang. Fender's S-1 switching system expands the tonal palette by engaging series wiring for a thicker, more powerful voice when needed.

Modern appointments including locking tuners, a TUSQ nut, Luminlay side dots, and a 6-saddle chrome-plated brass bridge provide exceptional tuning stability, precise intonation, and dependable performance on stage or in the studio.
