Performance-built Tele with Classic Thinline Style

Between its classic Thinline Tele style and its made-to-rock performance-driven features, this Fender Deluxe Telecaster Thinline semi-hollowbody electric guitar is a modern player's dream come true. Vintage Noiseless pickups deliver classic '60s Tele sound that complements the Deluxe Telecaster Thinline's acoustic resonance, while 4-way pickup switching offers an extended range of tone. Add to that a flat 12-inch radius fretboard, locking tuners, and added stability, and this Tele is ideal for leads and solos.

Classic Tele vibe with modern performance

At first glance, the Deluxe Telecaster Thinline looks every bit the classic Thinline Tele, but it sports a handful of cool modern twists that you're going to love. For starters, there's the modern 6-saddle bridge, which includes block saddles for added tuning stability. Likewise, locking tuning machines and an increased break angle at the nut both enhance tuning stability as well. Top it off with a contoured neck heel and a flatter-than-average 12" fretboard radius, and the Deluxe Telecaster Thinline practically begs for lead and solo playing.

Semi-hollow body delivers acoustic resonance

If you crave a balance of acoustic resonance and solidbody sustain, then this Deluxe Telecaster Thinline is the Tele for you. Its semi-hollowbody design imparts air and acoustic harmonics into your tone, while the solid tone block ensures each note comes through loud and clear. And the reduced weight is a great feature, particularly for marathon gigs and long sessions in the studio.

Vintage Noiseless pickups offer hum-free classic tone

Get the classic Tele tone you love, without the hum. The Deluxe Telecaster Thinline's set of Fender Vintage Noiseless pickups offers traditional Tele tone, while their stacked Alnico 2 magnet design wards off interference and ground hum. In other words, you get the timeless Tele twang you want, but none of the show-stopping radio and electrical noise you don't. Top it off with 4-way switching that includes a setting for the bridge and neck in series, and you get plenty of tone options to play with.

Fender Deluxe Telecaster Thinline Semi-hollowbody Electric Guitar Features:

  • A modern take on a classic semi-hollowbody Telecaster guitar design
  • Semi-hollow alder body balances acoustic resonance with solidbody sustain
  • Vintage Noiseless single-coil pickups deliver '60s Tele sound, minus the hum
  • 4-way pickup switching includes the throaty sound of neck and bridge in series
  • 6-saddle bridge with block saddles and locking tuners provides epic tuning stability
  • Flat 12-inch-radius fingerboard makes solo runs and note bends extremely smooth
