The Made in Japan Traditional series combines Fender's traditional instrument-making aesthetics with Japan's sophisticated craftsmanship. Fender's authentic DNA is revived with solid Made in Japan quality.
The Made in Japan Traditional 50s Telecaster® features a gloss-finished basswood body. Its 9.5-inch-radius "U"-shaped maple neck with 21 vintage-style frets provides the classical playability unique to the Traditional series. The vintage-style String-Through-Body bridge with three brass saddles, together with the original pickups selected for the Traditional series, produces a realistic and musical vintage tone. The narrow nut width is easy to play for Japanese players. This series reflects solid guitar craftsmanship and a flexible response to players' needs.
