2011 Fender Vintage Hot Rod '52 Telecaster - 60th Anniversary
The guitar is in good to very good overall condition due to the cosmetic wear. This one was played and loved for many years. Lots of dings, scratches, buckle worming, and other wear as seen in photos. It is structural and electronically in excellent shape, a true road warrior. I spent a few hours cleaning and setting this up and it plays smooth and sounds incredible. Tons of mojo and you won't be afraid of getting banged up.
Includes the original Fender tweed case.

A brand-new old friend
Classic vintage styling and a thin nitrocellulose laquer finish mingle with modern pickups and a comfy "U"-shaped neck with a Maple fingerboard and medium jumbo frets on the Vintage Hot Rod '52 Tele. The result is a guitar with a vintage feel and modern tonal capabilities, giving it a broken-in vibe and adding functionality to a classic instrument. If you ever pined for the feeling you can only get from playing a great-sounding, lived-in axe but want a new instrument, here it is!
Classic vibe with a real kick
Yes, it's got a classy, vintage appeal. But take a closer look at that Seymour Duncan Vintage Mini HB in the neck position, and the Custom Vintage Tele single-coil at the bridge. You know you're getting more firepower out of these pickups than any stock '52 Tele could ever dream of!
Ultra-comfortable neck
The Vintage Hot Rod '52 Tele's one-piece Maple neck has that comfortable broken-in feeling, with a super-playable "U" shape. A flatter fingerboard radius and medium jumbo frets also contribute to the easy playability of this instrument, which comes with a deluxe vintage tweed case.
