• Vintage specs with modern appointments
  
• Modern pickups

A brand-new old friend
Classic vintage styling and a thin nitrocellulose laquer finish mingle with modern pickups and a comfy "U"-shaped neck with a Maple fingerboard and medium jumbo frets on the Vintage Hot Rod '52 Tele^®. The result is a guitar with a vintage feel and modern tonal capabilities, giving it a broken-in vibe and adding functionality to a classic instrument. If you ever pined for the feeling you can only get from playing a great-sounding, lived-in axe but want a new instrument, here it is!

Classic vibe with a real kick
Yes, it's got a classy, vintage appeal. But take a closer look at that Seymour Duncan Vintage Mini HB in the neck position, and the Custom Vintage Tele single-coil at the bridge. You know you're getting more firepower out of these pickups than any stock '52 Tele could ever dream of!

Ultra-comfortable neck
The Vintage Hot Rod '52 Tele's one-piece Maple neck has that comfortable broken-in feeling, with a super-playable "U" shape. A flatter fingerboard radius and medium jumbo frets also contribute to the easy playability of this instrument, which comes with a deluxe vintage tweed case.
