Body and Neck
The body and neck are in line with the traditional Tele formula. This guitar pairs an ash body with a maple neck and tops it off with a maple fingerboard. The neck has “U” shape to it which is a fairly chunky profile that comfortably fills the hand as you grip it. The fingerboard radius is a more modern-style 9.5” for comfortably fretting chords without getting in the way of soloing and string bending.
Wide Range Humbuckers
With two powerful humbuckers, the Tele Deluxe certainly doesn’t sound like a standard Telecaster. This guitar is fitted with Fender’s Wide Range humbuckers for a thicker and warmer tone. Dial things back for a smooth, rounded sound or turn it up for aggressive, higher gain tones that really take advantage of the added humbucker kick.
Tremolo Bridge
What separates this model from the traditional versions is the inclusion of a Strat-style tremolo bridge. This allows you to throw some vibrato into the powerful humbucking sound of the Tele Deluxe.
