Fender American Elite Telecaster Butterscotch Blonde MN

General

More than half a century after its introduction, the Telecaster has not waned in popularity. Fundamentally, the design has remained unchanged throughout the decades, but Fender have given it all kinds of upgrades in terms of playing comfort and sound over the years. This American Elite Telecaster MN combines the past and the future into one high-quality instrument. Some minor improvements made to the Telecaster's original design include Deluxe Noiseless Tele pickups that give your single-coils all the sparkle without all the noise. What's more, it features a S-1 switch and No-Load circuitry for an extra-broad tonal palette!

American Elite Tele MN: tested, legendary, modern

The combination of an alder body and a maple neck has stood the test of time for most Telecasters, and Fender equipped this American Elite Tele with a maple fretboard as well for even more sparkling trebles. Thanks to the two single-coils, you can lay down a solid foundation for that unmistakable Tele twang to really come through. The neck has been fully redesigned for optimal playing comfort and features a compound fretboard radius and a compound neck profile that goes from a Modern C to a D. This makes the Fender American Elite Telecaster just as suitable for stable, open chords at the first frets as it is for smooth tone bending and fast solos in the higher positions.

American Elite Telecaster

In 2015, Fender decided to upgrade their entire American Deluxe series based on the wishes of their biggest fans. Fender took a good look at the Telecaster design itself and altered it where necessary without affecting the integrity of the original design. When all adjustments were done, the term 'Deluxe' just didn't cut it any more, which is why the legendary brand renamed it the American Elite series. These instruments are simply top-of-the-line and boast more than 50 years of experience and skilled craftsmanship!
