Fender's American Vintage '64 Tele!

The FENDER^® American Vintage '64 Telecaster^® takes you back to a time of change. Social upheaval and the British invasion were in full swing, and Fender's '64 Telecaster was in the thick of it. Thick maple necks were morphing into a rounded C-shaped profile, now capped with a round-laminate rosewood fingerboard. A lightweight alder body replaced the ash slabs of yesteryear, and staggered bridge pickup pole magnets, threaded-steel-barrel bridge saddles, and 3-ply white pickguards were the order of the day. For pure, unadulterated '60s Tele^® vibe, pick up Fender's American Vintage '64 Telecaster^®.
