Fender Cabronita Telecaster Black electric guitar

General

Fender Custom Shop only offer the La Cabronita Especial as a very limited edition. It is a rugged Telecaster with dressed-down hotrod style and two fierce Gretsch-style humbuckers. Because of its tall price tag, this exclusive instrument isn't for everybody and that is why Fender make this Mexican Cabronita Telecaster. This is a budget-friendly version of the original, with the same tough, minimalistic looks and a wicked sound thanks to the two Fideli'Tron humbucker pickups.

Characteristics of the Fender Cabronita Telecaster

The Cabronita Telecaster is equipped with a solid alder body for a comfortably light weight and a balanced tone with rich mids. Its neck is made out of a single piece of maple and features 22 medium jumbo frets and a modern 9.5-inch radius for extra comfortable playing. The Stratocaster-style fixed bridge was fitted with six original Fender American Vintage saddles that are made of high-quality steel for a solid, tight tone. Thanks to the strings-through-body design, you can benefit from a proper dose of sustain and attack.

A Tele with an attitude

The two Fideli'Tron humbuckers on this Fender Cabronita Tele produce a nice fat sound, without diminishing the characteristic Telecaster sparkle and bite. The bridge pickup produces a bright and fierce sound that cuts through any mix, ideal for a wide range of music styles from country to punk and even hard rock. Its neck pickup, however, sounds delightfully warm and is excellently suited for sultry jazz and crunchy blues. Flick the three-position pickup switch to the middle position and it combines the sounds of both pickups.
