Last week we heard word from Fender on their new '55 Strat recreation. This week we've jumped forward a little over a decade with the release of a limited edition reissue of the 1967 Telecaster.
This reissue comes complete with the Telecaster's 1967 modifications such as pearl dot inlays inserted into the fretboards, a black Fender logo with a gold trim and traditional 2-pickup switching. To complete the visual authenticity, Fender Custom Shop has included:
- 2-piece premium ash body
- Maple "C" shape neck
- Custom Shop Limited Edition Decal
- A "round lam" Madagascar Rosewood fretboard with a 9.5-inch (241 mm) Radius
- 2 "Wing" String Trees
- 21 Medium Jumbo Frets
- “Top Hat” Switch Tip
- Mother-Of -Pearl Dot Position Inlays with Narrow Spacing
- Fender®/Schaller® Vintage “F” Style Tuning Machines
- Nitro-Cellulose Lacquer Finish.
- 3-Ply Parchment Pickguard
- Nickel/Chrome Hardware
- Original Vintage Style Tele Bridge with 3 Threaded Steel Saddles and “Ash Tray” Bridge Cover
The '67 Telecaster is available in one period-authentic colour, Firemist Silver.
According to the Fender website, "In keeping with the Closet Classic finish, this Tele has been built as if bought new in its respective year and played a few times a year and then put carefully away. It has a few small dings, a checked finish, oxidized hardware and aged plastic parts."
