Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Excellent

SP Luthier Notes: This instrument has been carefully inspected and, if necessary, serviced by our certified luthier to ensure it is in excellent playing condition.

The Fender American Standard Telecaster is a timeless solidbody that delivers classic Tele tone with modern playability and refinement. Its ash body provides a lively, resonant foundation with crisp highs and tight, defined lows, while the Custom Shop pickups offer clear, dynamic response with plenty of snap and character. The maple neck with a modern “C” profile and 9.5" radius feels smooth and comfortable, making it easy to play across all styles. The string-through-body bridge adds sustain and punch, enhancing its articulate voice. Finished in a natural gloss with a black pickguard, it carries a clean, iconic look. Bright, responsive, and versatile, this American Standard Tele brings a sound that fits effortlessly into any mix!

From Fender

The U.S.-made flagship of the Telecaster lineup and the modern version of a revered American original. As simply elegant as ever, the American Standard Telecaster is an enduring design classic for the guitarist who appreciates and aspires to the beautifully bright, clear tone and style of the Fender guitar that started it all. From garages to nightclubs to stadiums worldwide, this is the real thing - a timeless Telecaster that rings more fully and brilliantly than ever.
