Built with a semi-hollow ash body and the distinctive pearloid pickguard layout, this version brings the classic Thinline look together with the thicker, punchier voice of Fender’s original Wide-Range humbuckers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo recreate the authentic Wide-Range sound, Fender brought back CuNiFe magnets, an essential part of the original pickup design. With a 1972 “C”-shape maple neck, vintage-style 7.25\" radius, vintage tall frets, and period-correct hardware including a 3-bolt Micro-Tilt neck plate and bullet truss rod, this model stays true to the era while delivering the playability and resonance that made these Thinlines so popular.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSemi-hollow ash body for resonance and reduced weight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuthentic CuNiFe Wide-Range humbuckers for true vintage Thinline tone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1972 “C” neck profile with 7.25\" radius maple fingerboard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVintage-correct 3-bolt neck plate with Micro-Tilt and bullet truss rod\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePure Vintage 6-saddle string-through bridge with bent steel saddles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBody\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Material: Semi-Hollow Ash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Finish: Gloss Polyurethane\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickguard: 4-Ply Aged White Pearloid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeck\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Material: 1-Piece Maple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Profile: 1972 “C”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Finish: Gloss Polyurethane\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard Material: Maple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard Radius: 7.25” (184.1 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumber of Frets: 21\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFret Size: Vintage Tall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePosition Inlays: Black Dot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale Length: 25.5” (64.77 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut Material: Bone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut Width: 1.650” (42 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTuning Machines: Pure Vintage Fender “F” Stamped\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHardware\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge: Pure Vintage 6-Saddle String-Through Body Hardtail with Bent Steel Saddles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControl Knobs: Knurled Flat-Top\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardware Finish: Nickel\/Chrome\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eElectronics\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Pickup: Authentic CuNiFe Wide-Range Humbucking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge Pickup: Authentic CuNiFe Wide-Range Humbucking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickup Switching: 3-Position Blade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePosition 1: Bridge Pickup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePosition 2: Bridge and Neck Pickups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePosition 3: Neck Pickup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eControls: Master Volume, Master Tone\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMiscellaneous\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrings: Fender USA 250R Nickel Plated Steel (.010–.046)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCase: Vintage-Style Black Case with Orange Interior\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Buy from Tone Shop Guitars?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt Tone Shop Guitars, we pride ourselves on offering a curated selection of instruments backed by knowledgeable staff and exceptional customer service.
