The Fender JV Modified '60s Custom Telecaster Rosewood Fingerboard Electric Guitar brings iconic Tele tone into the 21st century. Fender Japan has recreated a classic with modern enhancements, including a sleek contoured body, 9.5" fingerboard radius and medium jumbo frets. Now guitarists can achieve that legendary Tele twang and snarl with improved comfort and playability.

Contoured Basswood Body Resonates While Reducing Weight

The JV Modified '60s Custom Tele gets its distinctive tone from an basswood body with professional grade contours. While basswood provides a balanced tone with solid lows and clear highs, the contours reduce weight and improve playing comfort. The end result is a guitar that resonates fully while feeling lightweight in your hands.

Vintage Style Pickups Produce Iconic Tele Tone

This Tele comes equipped with a pair of vintage style single coil pickups for those bright, punchy tones that helped define early rock music. The bridge pickup delivers a cutting twang perfect for rockabilly and country licks. The neck pickup produces a warmer, rounder tone ideal for blues and jazz. Together they provide a huge range of classic Tele sounds with crystal clarity.

Modern Fingerboard Enhances Playability

While the JV Modified '60s Custom Tele may look vintage, it plays like a modern instrument thanks to enhancements like a 9.5" fingerboard radius and medium jumbo frets. The flatter fingerboard and taller frets make it significantly easier to bend notes and play complex chords. Any guitarist can appreciate how this Tele blends vintage style with contemporary playability.

Other Features Include Vintage Style Tuners and Bridge

To complete the vintage vibe, this Tele comes equipped with vintage style tuners and a 3 saddle bridge. The tuners provide rock solid intonation while the bridge transfers string vibration directly into the body for optimal resonance. A 3 way pickup selector switch allows you to choose neck, bridge or both pickups together.
