Fender Vintera III Late '50s Telecaster Maple Butterscotch Blonde

Overview

The Vintera III Late ’50s Telecaster captures the snap, twang, and feel of a classic late-’50s Tele in a Butterscotch Blonde finish. Built with either an alder or ash body and a 1-piece maple neck, it delivers the punchy attack and clear articulation that defined Fender’s golden era.

A Late ’50s “V”-shaped neck profile pairs with a 7.25" radius and vintage-tall frets for a traditional playing experience. Vintage-style late-’50s Tele single-coil pickups and a 3-saddle bridge with steel barrel saddles complete the authentic formula, offering the bright, cutting tones and unmistakable twang associated with this era.
