American Vintage II 1975 Telecaster® Deluxe | Maple Fingerboard | Black

This Fender® American Vintage II model is a highly accurate replication of the classic '70s design that changed the face of music. Constructed with meticulous accuracy, featuring period-accurate bodies, necks, and hardware, quality finishes, and year-specific pickups, each instrument delivers a true representation of Fender's quality and sound.

Introduced in 1972 as Fender's flagship Telecaster®, the Telecaster Deluxe was the first Telecaster with two humbuckers. The American Vintage II 1975 Telecaster Deluxe sports a large Stratocaster® headstock, a comfort-contoured waist cut, and two Wide Range humbucking pickups, each with its own volume and tone control, as well as a 3-way toggle located on the upper bout. To accurately recreate the tone of the original, we sourced CuNiFe magnets, not produced since 1981.

Featuring a ‘75 “C”-shape hard rock maple neck, the American Vintage II 1975 Telecaster Deluxe plays like a dream with a 9.5” radius maple fingerboard and medium jumbo frets. Characteristic of production in 1975, this Telecaster is outfitted with a convenient "Bullet" style truss rod nut, three-bolt neck plate with Micro-Tilt™ mechanism and offered in Black, Mocha Brown, or 3-Color Sunburst over an alder body. Other features include a 6-Saddle hardtail bridge with stainless steel block saddles and vintage-accurate Tele® Deluxe tuners.

The instruments in the American Vintage II series are direct descendants of the original Fenders: designed for players with a fine appreciation for vintage Fender tone and feel and built with unmatched quality, down to the last screw. These are Fender electrics in their purest form: Fender American Vintage II, the stuff of legends.
