Fender American Vintage II 1963 Telecaster Rosewood Vintage Blonde w/case

The Fender American Vintage II 1963 Telecaster captures a key transitional moment in Tele history, pairing the punch and focus of an ash body with the warmth and smooth response of a round-laminated rosewood fingerboard. This model is built with period-correct specs throughout, offering the feel and sound of an early-’60s Tele without modern alterations.

Equipped with Pure Vintage ’63 Telecaster pickups and a vintage-style 3-saddle bridge with threaded steel barrel saddles, it delivers the clear twang, midrange snap, and dynamic response that defines classic Tele tone. A 1963 “C” maple neck, vintage tall frets, clay dot inlays, and a 7.25" radius round-lam rosewood board complete the authentic early-’60s playing experience.
