zZounds Gear Experts Say...
With a pair of single-coil Tele pickups, this guitar sings with vintage Telecaster tone. This left-handed model comes with a Modern Wiring Kit.

One of the longest-running production models in Fender's history, the Telecaster guitar has been modified only slightly in its more than 50 legendary years, with its great strength inherent in its classic simplicity.

Fender pays homage to their own with the left-handed American Vintage '52 Telecaster. Its premium ash body, one-piece U-shaped maple neck with 7.25 in.-radius fingerboard, single-ply black pickguard and original Tele circuit with three-position switch exude vintage authenticity, as do the brass bridge saddles, ashtray bridge cover and pair of American Vintage Tele single-coil pickups. A vintage six-saddle bridge and a modern wiring update kit are included.
