Fender Tenor Tele, Maple Fingerboard, Lake Placid Blue Overview
Fender Tenor Tele, Maple Fingerboard, Lake Placid Blue Overview by GAK.
A modern take on the 4-string tenor guitar, the Fender Tenor Tele has a huge sound that belies its small size. Tuned to the same pitches as the top 4 strings of a 6-string or any of a number of popular alternate tunings, guitar players will feel right at home on this fun-to-play tiny Telecaster.
Custom-designed 4-string alnico pickups give this Tele variation its sound—twangy and powerful, it has the authentic sound that’s made the Tele popular since its inception. The usual 3-way pickup switch is there, along with master volume and tone controls to further shape your sound. Comfortable for any playing style, the 22.75”-scale maple neck has a “U”-shaped profile and hosts a modern 9.5”-radius fingerboard with 21 vintage-tall frets. Other features include bone nut, 4-bolt neck plate and vintage-style strap buttons.
Designed to inspire new sounds and fuel creativity the Tenor Tele is sure to become a permanent addition to your stage and studio arsenal. Includes gig bag.
