Description

The Fender American Vintage II 1972 Telecaster Thinline in Olympic White is a faithful recreation of one of Fender’s most characterful early seventies designs. With its semi-hollow ash body, authentic CuNiFe Wide-Range humbuckers and period-correct neck carve, it delivers airy resonance, punchy humbucking tones and a distinctly vintage playing feel that will appeal to Tele traditionalists and modern players alike. Every detail has been dialled in to mirror a genuine 1972 Thinline, from the 7.25 inch radius maple fingerboard and three-bolt neck with Micro-Tilt to the bullet truss rod and Pure Vintage hardware. If you want the look, sound and response of a real early seventies Telecaster Thinline without the uncertainty of a vintage purchase, this American-made model puts that legendary feel straight into your hands. Authentic 1972 Thinline Feel The American Vintage II 1972 Telecaster Thinline features a period-correct 1972 C-shaped hard rock maple neck with a 7.25 inch radius fingerboard and vintage tall frets. This combination gives you that unmistakable vintage Fender feel under the fingers, with a comfortable, rounded profile that suits chords and leads, and just the right amount of fret height for expressive bends without feeling too modern. Semi-Hollow Ash Body Built with a semi-hollow ash body and a single F hole, this Telecaster Thinline offers a lively, resonant acoustic character and a noticeably lighter feel on the strap. The semi-hollow construction adds air and sweetness to your sound, giving clean tones extra shimmer and helping overdriven sounds bloom with a touch more warmth and complexity than a traditional solidbody Tele. CuNiFe Wide-Range Humbuckers At the heart of this guitar are a pair of authentic CuNiFe Wide-Range humbucking pickups, painstakingly recreated to match the originals. Using resurrected CuNiFe magnets, they deliver the signature Wide-Range voice: clear and open like a single coil, but with the fullness, punch and noise reduction of a humbucker. From glassy chords to muscular rock tones, they give you a huge palette of usable sounds across all three switch positions. Period-Correct Hardware and Construction True to its early seventies inspiration, this Telecaster Thinline is fitted with a three-bolt neck plate with Micro-Tilt mechanism, bullet-style truss rod nut and Pure Vintage Fender F-stamped tuners. The Pure Vintage 6-saddle string-through hardtail bridge with bent steel saddles provides precise intonation and solid tuning stability, while maintaining the snap and clarity that make a Tele feel so immediate and responsive. Key Features Semi-Hollow Ash Body with F Hole – The semi-hollow ash construction keeps the guitar comfortably light while adding extra resonance and acoustic-like air to your tone. The F hole not only completes the classic Thinline look, it also contributes to a more open, dynamic response that shines on both clean and driven sounds. Authentic CuNiFe Wide-Range Humbuckers – Using genuine CuNiFe magnets, these Wide-Range humbuckers recreate the articulate yet powerful voice of the original seventies design. You get clear note separation, tight lows and chimey highs, making this Tele equally at home in funk, indie, classic rock and beyond. 1972 C-Shaped Maple Neck with Vintage Specs – The 1972 C neck profile, 7.25 inch radius maple fingerboard and vintage tall frets deliver a truly period-correct feel. Chords feel natural and relaxed, while leads have a smooth, familiar resistance that encourages expressive playing and rewards a dynamic touch. Pure Vintage Hardware and Three-Bolt Micro-Tilt Neck – The Pure Vintage 6-saddle string-through bridge with bent steel saddles, F-stamped tuners and three-bolt neck plate with Micro-Tilt combine for stable tuning, accurate intonation and authentic seventies aesthetics. The Micro-Tilt system allows fine adjustment of neck angle so you can dial in your ideal action and feel. SpecificationsBody Body Material: Semi-Hollow Ash Body St…
