This is the American Vintage II 1977 Telecaster Custom in Wine with a maple fretboard. It’s a limited run of the model featuring the comfort of a belly cut on the back of the body! The American Vintage II Series is a continuation and improvement upon the beloved Fender American Vintage Series that pays homage to Fender’s history and heritage. The Telecaster Custom marked one of Fenders earliest forays into the use of humbucking pickups. The Tele Custom featured a 3-way toggle located on the upper bout and dual volume and tone controls mounted to a stylish, elongated pickguard. The American Vintage II 1977 Telecaster Custom reproduces the quintessential tone and feel of the original. This Tele features a Wide Range humbucking pickup in the neck position and a Pure Vintage ’77 single-coil Tele pickup in the bridge position. To create an authentic Wide-Range humbucking pickup, we resurrected CuNiFe magnets, which had been out of production since 1981, and are an essential element in recreating the sonics of the original. The American Vintage II 1977 Telecaster Custom plays like a dream with a 77 C-shape hard rock maple neck with a 7.25 radius maple or rosewood fingerboard and vintage tall frets. Other features include a Tele bridge with 6 slotted steel barrel saddles, F stamped tuners, a convenient “Bullet” style truss rod nut and a three-bolt neck plate with Micro-Tilt mechanism. If you want an American-made Fender that has all of the historically-accurate parts and tones, it doesn’t get much better than the American Vintage II series!
