Telecaster body with belly cut

Following the popular Stratocaster design, the alder body of the Telecaster Deluxe has also been fitted with a belly cut to improve the instrument’s playing comfort, whether played with a strap or on the lap. Also unique to this Telecaster model is the large CBS-era headstock, whilst the modern 9.5-inch fingerboard radius ensures easier bending on the 21 vintage tall frets of the maple fingerboard.

Pure Vintage Wide Range Humbucker

As the sound-producing elements of the Telecaster Deluxe, two classic Fender Pure Vintage Wide Range humbuckers are, of course, a must. Compared to conventional humbuckers, these two dual-coil pickups with CuNiFe magnets produce a brighter tone with distinct single-coil characteristics and impress with their increased output. Both Wide Range humbuckers are controlled via separate controls for volume and tone.

Hardware & Parts

Unlike the traditional ‘ashtray’ bridge on the Telecaster, the Fender American Vintage II 1975 Telecaster Deluxe is fitted with a Pure Vintage 6-saddle hardtail bridge , which provides each string with an individual saddle for precise intonation adjustment. Combined with the iconically shaped three-ply pickguard, classic ‘skirted’ control knobs and six Pure Vintage Tele Deluxe tuning machines , this creates the unmistakable look of the Fender Telecaster Deluxe.
