Fender Japan LTD Traditional 70s Tele Deluxe, Maple Fingerboard, Seafoam Green Overview
This limited edition Fender Made In Japan (MIJ) Traditional ‘70s Telecaster Deluxe is presented in a stunning Sea Foam Green finish. Being a Traditional ‘70s model, this Tele looks and feels like an instrument from the period.
Japanese Craftsmanship
Fender’s MIJ range of guitars has only recently been more readily available in the UK, finally filling a demand which has been there for some time. Though coming in at a significant cost reduction over American-made instruments, these Made In Japan guitars represent the best of Japanese build quality. They are, in other words, world class.
Authentic Style
If you’re looking at a Traditional ‘70s model, such as this Deluxe Telecaster, you’re likely to be after a guitar which is highly authentic to the ‘70s period of Tele’s. This Deluxe model is fitted with twin Fender Wide Range Humbucking pickups, controlled via a 3-position blade. An extended 3-ply pearloid pickguard contrasts with black amp-style skirted control knobs, while a 6-saddle bridge keeps the intonation in check.
Comfortable Feel
In terms of feel, the “U”-shaped neck is fatter than your run-of-the-mill “C”-shaped neck, ideal for those with larger hands, or for someone who just likes some chunk to their neck. It’s certainly in-keeping with the workhorse nature of a Tele. The traditional 7.25”-radius fretboard is perfect for raw blues, rock ’n’ roll or country styles.
