Electric Guitar

Classic late '50s Tele twang, vintage feel, and unmistakable Fender snap

The Fender Vintera III Late '50s Telecaster is built for players who want the bright attack, cutting clarity, and direct response that made the Telecaster one of the most influential Electric Guitar designs ever created. With its vintage-style late '50s pickup set, traditional neck profile, and period-correct hardware, this model delivers an authentic Fender playing experience that feels equally at home on stage, in the studio, or in daily practice.

Bright and cutting Telecaster tone

Equipped with two Vintage-Style Late '50s Single-Coil Tele pickups, this guitar delivers the punch, snap, and articulate bite players expect from a great vintage-inspired Telecaster. The traditional SS layout and 3-position blade switching make it easy to move from sharp bridge pickup twang to warmer neck pickup sounds while keeping that unmistakable Fender clarity intact.

Authentic late '50s playing feel

The 1-Piece maple neck features a Late '50s "V" profile that offers a distinctive and comfortable grip, while the 7.25 inch fingerboard radius and vintage tall frets contribute to a traditional Fender playing experience. The maple fingerboard, 25.5 inch scale length, and bone nut complete a design that balances smooth feel, strong note attack, and classic response.

Vintage-style hardware with dependable performance

A 3-saddle vintage-style Tele bridge with barrel steel saddles helps deliver authentic '50s-style twang, solid sustain, and reliable intonation, while Fender Vintage-Style tuning machines support stable tuning with period-correct visual appeal. The included deluxe gig bag adds practical protection for rehearsals, sessions, and gigs.
