Fender American Deluxe Telecaster Thinline at a Glance:- N3 Noiseless pickups deliver classic Tele tone
- Fender's S-1 circuit gives you sonic options
- Micro-Tilt adjustment mechanism lets you achieve perfect action
Fender's N3 Noiseless Tele pickups give the American Deluxe Telecaster Thinline guitar the classic spank and twang of traditional single-coil pickups without the dreaded 60-cycle hum. Built with a stacked set of Alnico V magnets, N3 Noiseless pickups provide you with the same level of noise cancelation you'd expect out of humbuckers. But thanks to Fender's cutting-edge design, N3 Noiseless pickups also hit your amp with the classic Tele tones most 'buckers can't seem to muster.
Fender's S-1 circuit gives you sonic optionsThe Fender American Deluxe Telecaster Thinline packs a wide range of tone thanks to its S-1 switch. In the middle pickup position, this allows you to switch between series and parallel pickup wirings. Normally, Teles are wired in parallel, but the series setting gives you a fatter, rounder tone that's like a humbucker with the added bite of a single-coil pickup.
Micro-Tilt adjustment mechanism lets you achieve perfect actionIn the 1970s, Fender offered guitarists a cool innovation: the Micro-Tilt adjustment mechanism. Integrated into their 3-bolt neck attachment plate, the Micro-Tilt adjustment mechanism let players attain the lowest action in situations where the bridge saddles were already at their lowest settings. With a quick adjustment of the Micro-Tilt, you could pitch the neck back without resorting to the crude (and inexact) practice of placing a shim in the neck pocket underneath the butt end of the neck. Back then, the only issue was the relative instability of the '70s-era 3-bolt neck plate. Well, the American Deluxe Telecaster Thinline has the answer - a 4-bolt neck plate with a Micro-Tilt adjustment mechanism. The best of both worlds!
