Bari Tele!

The Fender Blacktop Telecaster Baritone, with its 27" scale and B-to-B baritone tuning, is the perfect axe for laying down the glue between your guitars and basses. Armed with a Blacktop Tele Humbucker, two Blacktop Tele single-coils, and five-way switching, this guitar will never be at a loss for new and innovative sounds. You get a fast-action maple neck with a comfortable rosewood fingerboard, and a strings-through-body hardtail bridge with six cast saddles. If you're looking to inject your music with new tonal colors, we've got the solution: the Fender Blacktop Telecaster Baritone.

Fender Blacktop Telecaster Baritone Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:
  • Legendary axe goes low
  • Bigtime tonal versatility
  • The Blacktop treatment
Legendary axe goes low

Fender's Blacktop Telecaster Baritone solidbody electric gives you the best of both worlds: earth-shaking low-tuned tones plus a legendary guitar design. Our Sweetwater Sales Engineers love this axe, and so will you! The Tele has been embraced by guitarists the world over for over six decades, and now you can elicit subterranean tones from it! The Blacktop Tele's long scale and fast-playing neck combine to give you an unbeatable sonic weapon - onstage, or in the studio.

Bigtime tonal versatility

Fender spec'd the Blacktop Telecaster Baritone with three pickups, instead of the Tele's usual two. You not only get a pair of Tele neck pickups (known for their warmth and sparkle) in the neck and middle positions - there's also a smokin' hot humbucker at the bridge, waiting for marching orders. This sonic elixer gets poured through a 5-way blade - giving you bigtime tonal versatility.

The Blacktop treatment

Fender's affordable Blacktop Series has expanded the sonic frontiers of classic Fender instruments by powering them with high-gain humbucking pickups. With its HSS pickup configuration, the Blacktop Telecaster Baritone gives you a broad palette of deep, rich, even aggressive tones to up the intensity of your music. The Blacktop treatment also includes unmistakable styling touches such as skirted amp knobs and a reversed control plate. And perhaps best of all, Blacktop Series instruments are amazingly affordable!

Fender Blacktop Telecaster Baritone Solidbody Electric Guitar Features:
  • Alder body, maple neck; 27" scale
  • Rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets and aged white dots
  • One Blacktop Tele humbucker and two Blacktop Tele neck single-coils; 5-position blade
  • Strings-through-body hardtail bridge with 6 cast saddles
  • Skirted amp knobs: master volume, master tone
