It's a rare sight. A vintage-style single coil in the bridge and a humbucker in the neck makes for a unique and dynamic sounding guitar. The lower output single coil in the bridge position creates a vintage, sparkling, crisp sound which gives every note you play a beautifully tight voicing. It's perfect for making each note in a chord pop out with clarity, and it gives your riffs a vibrance like no other pickup.
The Wide Range neck pickup is ideal for juicy lead tones, although it also makes chords sound rich and creamy. When you hear how this higher output humbucker lifts your notes up, you'll be blown away. Each lick you play will have a fatness and boldness like never before, so you can always be confident that you'll sound stellar. With each pickup having been re-voiced to sound like the pickups of the '70s, your tone is guaranteed to have plenty of vintage goodness sewn in.
Outstanding playability
It's smooth as silk. The maple neck offers you the ultimate playing experience. Finely crafted to a Thin C profile, you'll find that your hand fits comfortably around it. The gloss urethane finish gives your hand a smooth, comfortable ride as you change between fret positions. The maple wood itself also creates a beautifully bright resonance, helping to draw out the fullness of your notes.
The fretboard builds on the pristine neck – it's incredibly playable. Also made from maple, it boosts the bright resonance further, whilst also giving your fingers an easy ride. You'll find fret transitions feel smooth and natural, freeing you up to improvise at will. Nothing will stand in your way to writing stellar music.
The perfect performance
It's gleaming with quality. The hardware which keeps this guitar together makes a huge difference to its overall playability and capability. The three-saddle American vintage strings-through-body bridge keeps your tuning well and truly tight, whilst boosting the sustain and resonance of the Vintera '70s Telecaster. The three-ply pickguard adds a stunning vintage aesthetic, whilst also keeping your finish scratch-free. Offering classic goodness for the modern musician, this guitar is ready to take you on a journey of pure nostalgia.
