Fender American Performer Telecaster Honey Burst RW with gig bag

General

If you want to get your hands on an attractively-priced American Fender Telecaster, you won't find a better option than this model from the American Performer series. It's made in Corona, California and even comes complete with a deluxe gig bag!

American Performer Telecaster: expressive sounds

This Tele has an alder body and is equipped with two Yosemite single-coil pickups. The one at the neck has a shellac coating, while the one at the bridge has wax potting. Both pickups deliver more output than you might expect which means the dynamics in your playing come through extremely well. There's also a Greasebucket tone circuit that gives you more control over the high frequencies without emphasising the bass.

Authentic playing feel

Another outstanding feature on this model is its neck that has a modern C profile and a rounded 9.5-inch radius giving it an authentic playing feel. This version has a rosewood fretboard that adds extra warmth to the sound and there are 22 jumbo frets. The newly-developed ClassicGear machine heads combine a vintage look with modern reliability and ensure excellent tuning stability along with the 1.65-inch string nut.
