Step Into Elegance With a Fender Suona Thinline

Fender’s back at it again with another jaw-dropping limited-edition series: Suona Thinlines. This Suona Telecaster Thinline offers discerning guitar players elegance and plenty of classic Tele tone. The Suona Telecaster Thinline starts with an Italian Alpine spruce top and ash body for articulate attack and plenty of semi-hollow warmth. Moving onto the neck, you’ll find roasted flame maple cut into a modern “C” shape with an ebony fingerboard running luxuriously down the length. A special selection of pickups reels in the warm, resonant tones to the electrified realm. These include a custom-designed Suona Tele and Custom Shop Twisted Tele pickup for rich, lively, all-Tele tone. Other visual appointments like F-hole, matching headstock, and vintage-styled hardware give this axe a grand appearance that denotes the playability and tone found within. Grab one of these limited-edition Teles from Sweetwater today!

Artistry, performance, and a classy appearance

The Suona Thinline Telecaster sings with a voice that echoes the work of a legendary artisan. Pick up one of these high-performing Teles for yourself, and you’ll find artistry in every detail. Its semi-hollow ash body, complete with an Italian Alpine spruce top, creates the perfect musical chamber for divine acoustic-electric exploits. Its flame maple neck sports an ebony fingerboard with a compound radius fingerboard from 7.25 inches to 9.5 inches for ultimate player comfort. Tradition and innovation stand hand in hand in the Suona Telecaster Thinline. Fender imbued this guitar with features geared toward performance and visual appeal. A 3-saddle Vintage-style Tele bridge is full of classic Fender tone and performance, while the pickguard, nickel/chrome hardware, and F-hole give it a classy and refined appearance.

Twangy Tele tone full of enthusiasm

But what about the pickups? Don’t worry, we’re just getting there! The Limited-edition Suona Telecaster Thinline sports a Tele duo of single-coils. In the bridge position, you’ll find the custom-designed Suona Tele; in the neck position, you’ll find a Custom Shop Twisted Tele. Together, these pickups produce tones filled with twangy Tele enthusiasm and classic Fender earmarks. Engage the 3-position pickup selector, and you can mix and match your tones to achieve the desired sound. The two knobs will dial you in to master volume and master tone. Prepare your ears for some serious Telecaster tone filled with the richly resonant warmth of a Thinline body.

Why Buy Your Guitar from Sweetwater?

See how Sweetwater goes to great lengths to give you the very best online guitar buying experience. From our online Guitar Gallery that allows you to see and select the exact instrument you want to our 55-point Inspection process and our in-house guitar techs, we take the guesswork out of buying your next guitar online.

What is Demo Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call a "demo" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

What demo means to us is that we've had it out of the box, or maybe it was in a customer's hands for a few days and isn't "factory fresh" as a result. Every demo item we sell has Sweetwater's 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty, and has been tested and verified up to "new" specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it's in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

Note: While demo items from Fender do not include the Fender Musical Instruments Corporation warranty, you can shop with confidence knowing that this item is backed and covered by Sweetwater’s 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty.

When you buy a Demo item at Sweetwater, you get:
  • 2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
  • Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!
  • FREE shipping on most items
  • Equipment that will MEET or EXCEED your expectations!

Customer Reviews

Rated 5/5

Love everything about this.

Every feature I desire all in one unit.
I love how light it is and it sounds incredible plugged in or even not if you are walking around the house.
I love the toaster/tiger neck with no dots on the front.
The guitar just looks elegant and timeless and plays wonderfully. Thank you to Sweetwater for actually showing photos of the actual guitar on line.
With woodgrains that's an important option for me.

Radius issues

Why in the world would they have a 7.5 to 9.5 radius ? Imho, it's a no sell.
Music background: High school marching band

It’s impossible to imagine a world without Fender guitars, and if you’re like many of the guitarists at Sweetwater, then Fender not only made the first guitar you ever bought " they made the last one too! From building the first mass-produced solidbody electric guitars and basses in the 1950s to creating some of the most influential amplifier designs in history, it’s no wonder why Fender is one of the biggest names in the business. As one of the world’s largest Fender dealers, we have countless guitars, basses, amps, effects pedals, and accessories in stock and ready to ship, whenever you need them. We’re always getting our hands on their latest creations, and there’s nothing we love more than to tell our customers all about them! So, whether you’re looking for your first axe or a Custom Shop creation, make sure to give your Sweetwater Sales Engineer a call at (800) 222-4700.
