Here for sale we have a Fender Limited Edition ‘72 Telecaster Custom Electric Guitar in Sonic Blue finish. Made in Mexico in 2019, this bolt-on constructed instrument consists of an Alder body, a Maple neck, and a 22 Vintage-Style fret Maple fingerboard. Other features include a 6-Saddle Adjustable Bridge with Fender Bigsby Vibrato Tailpiece, Skirted Amp control knobs, and Fender Vintage “F” Stamped tuning machines. A Fender Wide-Range Humbucking pickup is fitted in the neck whilst a Standard Single-Coil Tele pickup is fitted in the bridge, these are wired to a 3-way pickup selector and independent volume and tone controls.
The Maple neck plays well, with Fender's popular 'C' profile providing a substantial feel whilst remaining slim enough for articulate playing. The Satin finish to the rear is pleasant to the touch and assists with smooth navigation of the 25.5" scale. The Maple fingerboard is very bright, and with its 7.25" radius delivers a suitably vintage-inspired playing experience further enhanced by the Vintage Style frets. The 6-saddle Adjustable Bridge with Bigsby tailpiece is a welcome addition, ensuring accurate intonation and action with plenty of adjustability.
The Fender pickups installed in this guitar deliver all of the Telecaster tones you know and love but with more kick than you would expect! The Fender Wide Range Humbucker pickup gives a nice balanced tone while the bridge pickup is where this guitar really comes alive though, with a bright, searing bite and buckets of Tele 'Twang' that will catapult you to the front of any mix. The unobtrusive controls are nicely responsive, allowing you to sculpt your sound easily on the guitar without getting in the way of your playing.
