For guitarists craving the iconic style and tone of Fender's golden era, the Vintera '60s Telecaster Bigsby is a dream come true. It comes with all the sought-after features of the 60s, like a period-accurate neck shape, re-voiced pickups, and a cool Bigsby tremolo. This guitar has that classic Telecaster growl and twang that made it famous.
The recreated '60s single-coil Telecaster pickups sound just like the originals, with a twangy, articulate tone that put Fender on the map. The thick 'Early ‘60s C'-shaped neck has a 7.25”-radius fingerboard and 21 vintage-style frets for a classic playing feel. The Bigsby vibrato adds expressive effects without losing the Tele® twang, and the vintage-style tuning machines offer great looks, solid performance, and tuning stability. Other features include a four-bolt neck plate, chrome hardware, and vintage-style strap buttons. It also comes with a deluxe gig bag.

Using your Fender Vintera 60s Bigsby Telecaster is a breeze. First, make sure the guitar is properly tuned using the vintage-style tuning machines. You can adjust the 6-saddle adjustable bridge to get the right action for your playing style.
When you're ready to play, strum or pick the strings and enjoy the classic Telecaster twang from the vintage-style '60s single-coil pickups. The Bigsby vibrato is a great way to add some expression to your playing. Just gently push or pull on it to create vibrato effects.
As for maintenance, keep your guitar clean by wiping it down with a soft cloth after each use. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or humidity, as this can damage the wood and hardware. You may also want to change the strings regularly to keep the tone fresh. And when you're not playing, store your guitar in the included gig bag to protect it from scratches and bumps.
