Does this fender telecaster look good?

SlashB · 08-21-2008, 08:42 AM

Hey guys,

I have just ordered myself a Fender 60's Telecaster in Candy Apple Red!

Estimated delivery is 27th August so next Wednesday. Cannot wait

.:: Fender®.com ::.

Can someone tell me where this guitar is made though? I fail to find that information.

It cost me £510 ($900)

Cheers,

SlashB

EC, Classic Series, candy apple red finish, alder body, one-piece maple neck, 21-fret rosewood fingerboard with white dot markers, 2 single coil alnico pickups, 3-way switch, volume and tone controls, mint green-b-w pickguard, vintage-style hardware, 3-barrel bridge with grooved saddles, 25.5" scale, 1-5/8" nut width, may have 60th Anniversary badge on back of headstock, built in Mexico

Nice guitars.

Yes made in Mexico and yes very nice examples of a 60s era tele very good congrats. The nut width is closer to 1 11/16th on the 60s and 1 5/8th on the 50s

I believe they are only assembled in Mexico.
The parts come from the States.

Nice looking Tele! Congrats!
