If you're into authentic alt - rock and pop - punk vibes, the Fender Jim Adkins JA - 90 Telecaster Thinline is your go - to. Designed in collaboration with Jimmy Eat World's frontman, it captures the unique tone and feel of the mid - 2000s. This semi - hollow guitar is based on Adkins' TC - 90 Telecaster, with special design tweaks that create a super sweet sound. The body is a Telecaster shape made of semi - hollow ash, finished in a gorgeous translucent crimson red urethane. The laurel fretboard has a 9.5' (241 mm) radius, 22 frets, and white pearloid dot inlays. It comes with Seymour Duncan® pickups, a 6 - saddle vintage - style bridge, a 3 - ply black pickguard, Fender® USA nickel - plated steel strings, standard cast/sealed tuning machines, and chrome hardware.
Using your Fender Jim Adkins JA - 90 Telecaster is easy. First, tune it up using the standard cast/sealed tuning machines. Plug it into your amplifier and start strumming. When playing, the semi - hollow body gives it a unique resonance. For the best sound, adjust the volume and tone knobs according to your preference. To keep your guitar in top shape, clean it regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and fingerprints. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures and humidity, as this can damage the body and fretboard. If you're changing the strings, use the Fender® USA 250L Nickel - Plated Steel strings in the recommended gauges. When not in use, store it in a proper guitar case to protect it from scratches and bumps.
