The Made in Japan Traditional series is a fusion of Fender's traditional instrument-making aesthetics and 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. The 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 Sting-Through-Body bridge with three brass saddles and the original pickups selected for the Traditional series produce 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 the needs of players.
