‘50s Fender Nocaster
The Fender Vintera II ‘50s Nocaster represents Leo Fender’s original innovation of electric guitars. This timeless classic has everything you need from a guitar with an incredible finish, vintaged voiced pickups, and thick “U” shaped neck. Fender have even given this ‘Tele’ it’s original name to match the traditional style, keeping true to the authenticity of this recreation. Featuring an Alder body and Maple neck, this gorgeous guitar resonates that clear and punchy tone you would expect from a Telecaster. The thick, well balanced, “U” shaped Maple neck provides a fullness in feel with vintage tall frets for incredible bluesy bends and expressive vibrato.
At the heart of this Vintera II ‘50s Nocaster are two vintage-style ‘50s pickups that produce that classic crystal-clear sound, with the unique Tele twang and raw steel energy. The vintage-style 3-saddle bridge with brass barrel saddles provide great support in stability. The brass barrels help to give you a round and warmer tone in the high strings, especially when playing the neck pickup for that unique Tele sound. In keeping with the vintage vibes, the ‘50s Nocaster has vintage-style tuners that offer a finer gear ratio for exceptional tuning stability. If you’re looking for that Tele charm then the Vintera II Nocaster has the traditional bite, look, and feel of a traditional early ‘50s Telecaster.
