This Fender® American Vintage II series faithfully replicates the designs that transformed music, using components, finishes and pickups precisely suited to the year of origin. Each instrument is crafted with the utmost care, allowing for a sound that captures the iconic Fender sound.

The Fender American Vintage II 1963 Telecaster® blends alder's punch and focus with the warmth of a round-lam rosewood fingerboard, creating the classic Tele® twang. Accurately recreating the original sound, this Tele brings Pure Vintage ‘63 Telecaster® pickups, a triple threaded-steel saddle bridge and a comfortable “C”-shape maple neck. An accurate replica of 1963 production, this Tele boasts clay dots (narrow-spaced at the 12th fret), a 7.25” radius fingerboard, and comes in Crimson Red Transparent over mahogany and 3-Color Sunburst or Surf Green over Alder.

The American Vintage II collection of instruments closely replicates its Fender predecessors, crafted to meet the exacting standards of guitarists who value timeless Fender sounds and standards. Every component conforms to the exact specifications of the classic Fenders, making this series an iconic symbol of the Fender legacy.
