Fender Telecaster 1960, Blonde Refin

This 1960 Fender Telecaster carries the familiar feel and response that defined the model at the turn of the decade, with the clarity and immediacy that made these guitars such a fixture in working musicians’ hands. The body has been refinished and the neck shows an overspray, giving the instrument a cleaner visual presentation while still retaining the character and wear expected from a well-traveled vintage Fender. Its maple neck has a comfortable and substantial profile, paired with the articulate snap and focused low end that make early Telecasters so recognizable. There is an ease and balance to the way this guitar responds acoustically and it remains a strong example of a player-grade early slab-board Tele with the sound and feel that continue to define the model.
