Detailed replica of the semi-acoustic Telecaster from 1972.
With the Fender American Vintage II 1972 Telecaster Thinline MN Aged Natural, Fender delivers an authentic reproduction of arguably the most iconic version of the popular semi-acoustic Telecaster. Based on a design by legendary German luthier Roger Rossmeisl, this electric guitar features genuine 1970s specifications, including a resonant chambered ash body and a three-bolt "Micro-Tilt" maple neck. Two Fender CuNiFe wide-range humbuckers with period-correct magnets provide truly vintage tones—perfectly suited for classic blues and rock styles with the ideal blend of warmth and clarity. Naturally, historically accurate hardware such as a 6-saddle hardtail bridge and Pure Vintage "F" stamped tuners rounds out the American Vintage II 1972 Telecaster Thinline MN Aged Natural.
The Fender American Vintage II 1972 Telecaster Thinline MN Aged Natural combines the typical Tele feel with characterful vintage sounds.
The resonant chambered ash body and the comfortable maple neck are connected by three screws and the "Micro-Tilt" mechanism.
Authentic Thinline Construction
The construction of the American Vintage II '72 Thinline Tele faithfully follows the original design by Roger Rossmeisl, combining the classic Telecaster feel with a lively tone and comfortable playability. The ash body, with its generously carved resonance chambers, not only offers a pleasantly light weight but also adds an airy, acoustic-like timbre to the sound. The 1970s-style maple neck, secured with three bolts and featuring the “Micro-Tilt” adjustment mechanism, provides smooth playability all the way up the 21-fret maple fingerboard, which features a vintage “1972 C” profile and a 7.25" (184 mm) radius.
Two Authentic CuNiFe wide-range humbuckers promise powerful vintage sounds on the guitar amp.
Wide-Range Pickups with CuNiFe Magnets
For the American Vintage II 1972 Telecaster Thinline, Fender equips the guitar with two authentic CuNiFe Wide-Range humbuckers. Featuring pole pieces made from the correct copper-nickel-iron magnet material and tightly wound coils, these pickups deliver powerful tonal depth along with the brilliance and clarity that Fender is known for. The result is a wide range of vintage tones – from soulful clean sounds to creamy overdrive—readily available through any guitar amplifier. A classic passive electronics layout with a 3-way pickup selector and dedicated volume and tone controls offers full command over the guitar’s sound.
Pure Vintage tuners with embossed Fender-F keep the American Vintage II 1972 Thinline Telecaster safely and precisely in tune.
Reliable add-on parts
Naturally, the Fender American Vintage II 1972 Telecaster Thinline MN Aged Natural is completed with historically accurate, vintage-style hardware. A Pure Vintage 6-saddle, string-through-body hardtail bridge enhances the instrument’s lively tonal character, while six individually adjustable saddles made of bent steel ensure precise intonation and comfortable string spacing. At the headstock, Pure Vintage "F" stamped tuners deliver accurate tuning and exceptional stability.
