Description
Recommended player-condition used item!
A modern Telecaster from the original Fender, known for its high cost performance! A Fender USA American Special Telecaster has arrived in recommended player's condition used condition! Manufactured in 2012. This one features the ever-popular Vintage Blonde color!

Fender American Special Series

The American Special series was developed so that players of all skill levels can enjoy the quality of US-made Fender guitars. Born from the concept of wanting more people to experience "MADE IN USA," this is Fender's ultimate cost-performance series!

The combination of a vibrant glossy body and a highly playable satin-finish neck creates a new Fender tone.

This guitar features a 9.5R fingerboard radius (compared to the 7.25R curve of vintage-style guitars, which has a tighter curve), which is now standard in the current Fender lineup. This allows for greater flexibility in adjusting the string height and improves playability.

The guitar features jumbo frets, allowing for light-touch fingering and smooth bending, resulting in stable intonation!

The guitar is equipped with Custom Shop Texas Special Tele Pickups!
It delivers edgy highs reminiscent of Texas blues sounds, along with clear mids and tight bass.

Furthermore, it features a Greasebucket Tone Circuit (unlike a normal tone control, this circuit cuts both low and high frequencies simultaneously) for wide-ranging tone control! Even when the tone is turned down, you can obtain a clear and unparalleled sound, making it a model that can handle the modern music scene.

This is your chance to get that authentic Fender USA sound at a great price!

FEATURES
• C-shaped maple neck • 9.5-inch radius maple fingerboard with 22 jumbo frets • Two Texas Special™ single-coil Telecaster pickups • 3-way pickup switch • Greasebucket tone circuit (rolls off treble without adding bass)
• Vintage-style string-through-body Telecaster bridge with three brass saddles

We've just received a recommended player's condition used guitar! It's a 2012 model.
While there are some minor scratches, pick scratches on the pickguard, dents on the entire back of the body, paint scratches on the side of the body, and some tarnishing on the parts, this guitar has undergone a full maintenance at our shop and is in recommended condition, ready to play immediately.

The frets have been leveled and the guitar is ready to use. Approximately 75% of the fret life remains. The nut is in good working order, and the truss rod is adjustable as usual.

The electrical system is also functioning without any problems.

The weight is approximately 3.56 kg. It strikes a perfect balance, making it easy to use while still producing a solid, resonant sound.

The only included accessory is the original gig bag.
