The Fender American Standard Telecaster making a sound at SoundsLiveShop

June 16, 2011 - PRLog -- The Fender American Standard Telecaster has cemented its legacy in music. From small pokey pubs to open air arenas, it is loved and cherished by everyone who lays hands on one. The Fender American Standard Telecaster has become synonymous with some of the world's best known guitarists for a reason.


Eric Clapton, George Harrison, Kurt Cobain, Andy Summers, Jimmy Page, Bruce Springsteen and Joe Strummer are just a few guitarists who fell in love with the Fender American Standard Tele. The eclectic mix of artists is a reflection of the Telecaster's versatility to create a wide array of sounds. Depending on the selected pickup – bridge or neck – the Tele can produce rich, mellow, zingy, cutting, warm and bluesy tones allowing you to play with no restrictions.

The iconic shape of the Fender Telecaster has been left mostly untouched for this modern Telecaster. The beautiful hand-rolled Fretboard edges and alnico V pickups remain and the tuning machines are staggered and solid. The Fender American Standard Telecaster differs from the original in a few slight ways. It features 22 frets rather than 21 and the 3-saddle bridge has also been updated with a 6-saddle version, allowing for more independent length and height adjustment for each string.
The new neck and body finish make this model look more vibrant and the finish is more durable than ever. What's more, the guitar comes with a Fender-exclusive high-tech molded guitar case to keep it safe from any bumps when not in use.

Each Fender American Standard Telecaster comes with a lifetime warranty, ensuring that this guitar is not just any instrument, you're going to want to keep it for life.
