A Classic Telecaster from the '60s Plus a Bigsby Vibrato!

Few guitars shaped more styles of music in the '60s than the Telecaster guitar. And, Fender still makes them like they used to, with two single-coil Alnico pickups, vintage bridges and knurled knobs. The '60s Tele guitar has an alder body with a three-ply white pickguard, and a maple neck with a rosewood fingerboard.

This '60s Telecaster with a Bigsby tailpiece brings some vibrato to the table. Start off with an alder body and a maple neck, then add a highly sought after Bigsby "F" vibrato tailpiece and you have a very special guitar! Other features include vintage style Telecaster pickups, master volume and master tone controls, and a three-position pickup switch.
