Description

The Fender American Vintage II 1977 Telecaster Custom RW in 3-Color Sunburst captures a pivotal moment in Telecaster evolution blending classic Tele single-coil bite in the bridge with the added power of a humbucker in the neck. Built with an alder body and finished in gloss polyurethane it delivers a balanced punchy tone with strong mids and clear top-end response. The iconic 3-Color Sunburst finish paired with the enlarged pickguard and chrome hardware gives it that unmistakable late-70s Fender aesthetic that feels both bold and instantly recognisable on stage. A unique pickup configuration defines this models voice combining a Pure Vintage 77 Tele bridge pickup with an authentic CuNiFe Wide-Range humbucker in the neck. The result is a versatile tonal range that covers everything from cutting Tele twang to thicker warmer tones. The 1977 “C” maple neck and 7.25″ radius rosewood fingerboard keep the feel rooted in vintage spec while the four-knob control layout and 3-way toggle offer expanded tonal control compared to traditional Tele designs.
