Fender American Standard Telecaster in Black, USED

The Fender American Standard Telecaster in black is a classic electric guitar that embodies the timeless simplicity and iconic sound that has made the Telecaster a favourite for decades. Known for its versatility and reliability, this model offers everything you expect from a high-quality Telecaster, featuring a solid build, exceptional playability, and that unmistakable twang that suits genres ranging from country and blues to rock and pop. As part of the American Standard series, this Tele combines modern improvements with Fender’s vintage charm.

The body of the American Standard Telecaster is made from alder, which provides a balanced tone with pronounced mids, clear highs, and solid lows. The black finish gives the guitar a sleek, understated aesthetic that perfectly complements its minimalist design. The neck is crafted from maple and features a modern “C” shape, which is comfortable for a variety of playing styles, from rhythm to lead. The satin finish on the neck makes it smooth to play, while the rosewood fingerboard provides a bright and crisp attack that enhances the signature Tele sound.

This Telecaster is equipped with a pair of Custom Shop Broadcaster single-coil pickups, delivering a rich palette of tones, from the bright and twangy bridge pickup to the warmer, rounder neck tones. These pickups are versatile enough to handle clean, sparkling tones as well as overdriven grit. The no-load tone control further enhances tonal flexibility by allowing players to dial in a pure signal when the tone knob is set to maximum, effectively bypassing the tone circuit and resulting in an unfiltered, fuller sound. The three-way switch and master volume and tone controls make this guitar intuitive and easy to use for tonal exploration.

The American Standard Telecaster features a six-saddle bridge with bent steel saddles, which improves intonation and stability while keeping the classic Tele look. The through-body stringing provides enhanced sustain, ensuring that every note resonates fully. High-quality chrome hardware, including Fender standard tuning machines, contributes to its solid performance and reliability, whether playing at home, in the studio, or on stage. The Fender American Standard Telecaster in black is a perfect choice for players seeking a professional-grade instrument that combines classic tones and looks with modern playability and dependability.
