Description

The 1978 Fender Telecaster in black is a classic late-'70s example of Fender's iconic workhorse guitar. Featuring an alder body with a sleek black finish, it has a maple neck and fretboard, delivering the bright, snappy tone Telecasters are known for. The stock single-coil pickups provide plenty of twang and bite, while the heavier late-'70s build contributes to sustain and punch. With its vintage appeal and road-ready durability, this Telecaster embodies the bold sound and style of the era. With the exception of a new nut and a replaced 3-way switch, this guitar is all original and comes with the original hardshell case.
