Vintage-Style '60s Telecaster Tone

The vintage-style '60s Telecaster pickups deliver authentic early-'60s tone - bright, cutting twang with excellent clarity and articulation. The bridge pickup provides that famous Telecaster bite that cuts through any mix, while the neck pickup offers warm, smooth tones perfect for rhythm work and jazz. This is the classic Telecaster sound that defined country, rock, and pop music in the 1960s.

Fiesta Red Finish

Fiesta Red is one of Fender's most iconic custom colors - a vibrant, eye-catching red that was hugely popular in the 1960s. This bold finish makes a statement on stage while maintaining the professional aesthetic that Fender is known for. Fiesta Red Telecasters have graced countless iconic performances and remain one of the most sought-after vintage finishes.

Rosewood Fingerboard

The rosewood fingerboard is a defining feature of 1960s Telecasters. Unlike the earlier maple-only necks, rosewood adds warmth and complexity to the tone while providing a smooth, comfortable playing surface. The dark rosewood against the maple neck creates the classic two-tone aesthetic that became iconic in the '60s.

Mid-'60s C Neck Profile

The mid-'60s C neck profile is comfortable and versatile - slightly slimmer than '50s profiles but still substantial enough to feel like a real guitar. This shape is perfect for players of all styles and hand sizes. Combined with the 7.25" radius fingerboard and vintage frets, this neck delivers authentic '60s playing experience.

Perfect For:

Whether you're a vintage enthusiast seeking authentic '60s Telecaster tone and feel at an accessible price, a country or rock player wanting classic twang with rosewood warmth, a collector appreciating the vibrant Fiesta Red finish, or a player who loves the refinement of 1960s Telecaster design, this Fiesta Red beauty delivers.
