Modified Thinline Tele for rockabilly and rock'n'roll
With the Fender Limited Edition Caballo Tono Ligero Relic MN AgedGold Sparkle, the FenderCustom Shop presents a heavily modified interpretation of the legendary Thinline Tele, which is fully dedicated to rock'n'roll and rockabilly in terms of look and sound. Under the extrovert glittering Relic finish with the lovingly recreated playing traces of a debauched guitar life, an ash body with resonance chamber and two TV Jones TV Classic Filter'Tron pickups create the basis for brilliant tones between crisp cleans and lively overdrive. Due to the comfortable "10/56 V" neck profile, the one-piece flamed maple neck of the Caballo Tono Ligero Tele also creates the best conditions for implementing classic rock'n'roll playing techniques. Last but not least, the FenderCustom store completes the Caballo Tono Ligero Relic with professional Hardware in the form of a shortened Vintage RSD bridge and accurate FenderLocking tuners.
The Fender Limited Edition Caballo Tono Ligero Relic MN Aged Gold Sparkle is a premium electric guitar for rock'n'roll and rockabilly.
The comfortable "10/56 V" neck made of curly maple is screwed to the ash body using the classic method.
Thinline body and first class handling.
To connect a lively sound and excellent playing characteristics, the FenderCustom store relies on the established design of the Thinline Tele and a first-class wood selection when building the Caballo Tono Ligero. The generous resonance chambers of the two-piece ash body not only color the sound with a woody, warm timbre, but also contribute to the electric guitar's pleasantly light weight. The bolt-on, one-piece neck of heavily figured AAA-grade curly maple fits comfortably in the hand with its perfectly proportioned "10/56 V" profile, allowing fast-picked licks and solos to come out of the fingers with ease.
TV Jones TV Classic Filter'Trons elicit lively timbres with enormous brilliance and crisp twang from the guitar amp.
TV Jones pickups for lively rock'n'roll sounds
The electric sound transformation of the Caballo Tono Ligero Relic electric guitar is done by TV Jones Filter'Tron pickups, which are not for nothing considered the benchmark par excellence for tradition-conscious vintage sounds between rock'n'roll and rockabilly. Modeled after original Filter'Trons from the Fifties, the TV Classic pickups in neck and bridge position not only impress with an enormous brilliance that cuts through even the densest Mix, but also with a sensitive response that allows you to control the sound with your playing technique and the strength of your attack. In addition, the pickup of the Custom Shop Limited Edition Caballo Tono Ligero Thinline Tele are controlled by a straightforward 3-way circuit with master volume and master tone pots.
Fender locking tuners keep the Caballo Tono Ligero securely in tune and make changing strings much easier.
