General

The Fender Special Edition '62 Telecaster Bigsby in Candy Apple Red is at once strikingly beautiful, highly affordable and very exclusive! Japanese Fenders are usually not released on the European market, but of course Bax-shop managed to procure a few of these beauties anyway! They're built according to the blueprint set by the original 1962 Telecasters and feature a real Fender Bigsby vibrato unit.

Japan Special Edition ’62 Telecaster Bigsby Construction

The first Telecasters had a rather thick neck that was often compared to a baseball bat. In the '60s, however, they were given a much more comfortable C profile, which is also features on this particular Tele. Meanwhile, the alder body also adheres to the original model's specifications. It features a gorgeous Candy Apple Red finish and body bindings. Two Vintage-Style Single-Coils give it that typical Tele twang, while the cherry on top is the authentic Fender Bigsby vibrato unit.
