QTY:

The Tele has sported some pretty radical appointments over the years, but nothing can prepare you for this the Fender Parallel Universe Series II. It reimagines the Tele as something completely unique. The Tele Mágico takes the tried and true telecaster shape and serves it up with iconic department store tone and a dish of Pearloid decadence on the side. You'll get a thinline body made from ash, flame maple neck and fingerboard, custom neck profile, custom-designed gold-foil pickups, Cabronita pickguard, and tons of Pearloid accents. Designed with Ron Thorn from the Fender Custom Shop, the Tele Mágico showcases a new twist on classic Fender finishes, letting the grain of the ash body show through for your viewing pleasure. For the player who isn't afraid to stand out, the Tele Mágico makes a visual and sonic statement each time you hit the stage!

Introducing the Tele Mágico

The Tele Mágico was born after Fender approached Custom Shop Master Builder Ron Thorn and told him to go crazy with a custom Tele design. He designed it with extravagance rarely seen on standard Fender models. Featuring figured tonewoods, custom-designed pickups, totally unique neck profile, and more pearl than you can imagine, this guitar is made for the player. Thorn and Fender even collaborated on the finish, which adds a hint of transparency to let the grain shine through. If you're looking for Custom Shop know-how and decadent good looks, the Tele Mágico is the axe for you.

Extremely playable neck carve

This Tele is much more than unique visuals, it's made to be played. The flame maple neck has a custom neck profile that you have to feel to believe. Officially, the profile is listed as Soft V to C, but what exactly does that mean? At the nut, the neck has a comfortable "V" shape that fills your hand nicely. When you're done strumming chords and work your way up the neck, the "V" softens and transitions into the contemporary "C" profile that players love. The neck carve is designed to provide you with maximum comfort, no matter where you're playing.

Custom-designed gold foil pickups

When drawing up the Tele Mágico, Ron Thorn insisted that the guitar have a completely unique voice. The team went to the drawing board, and the Custom Shop pickup winders eventually emerged with old-school gold foil pickups. If you haven't encountered gold foils before, don't worry, Music Experience has you covered. Gold foil pickups burst onto the scene in the 1950s and ’60s when they popped up on student guitars from the likes of Harmony and Teisco. And just as quickly as they came, they vanished. Because they bite, growl, and spank at the same time, describing the tone of these pickups is tricky. They're neither here nor there, and that's why they're so great. When you plug in your Tele Mágico for the first time, you'll understand what we mean.

What Fender Says...

Pearl, nickel, and gold – the Parallel Universe Volume II Tele® Mágico isn’t afraid to show off. Designed with Fender Custom Shop Master Builder Ron Thorn, the Tele Mágico exudes cowboy class with its extravagant appointments, figured woods and custom pickups. Pearloid pervades – generously used for binding, inlays, tuning pegs, custom pickup rings and the Cabronita pickguard. The neck is flame maple and the Thinline swamp ash body is accentuated by the Trans Daphne Blue or Trans Surf Green gloss finish choices in a twist on classic Fender color conventions. Two custom-designed Fender Gold Foil pickups deliver crystalline highs, expressive mids and creamy lows. The “cut” 3-saddle Tele bridge delivers classic Tele tone and feel despite its stylishly sleek silhouette. And the comfortable custom neck profile, which transitions from a “V”- shape to a “C”-shape as you make your way up the fingerboard, is ideally suited to both rhythm and lead styles. Old world glamour meets Custom Shop know-how – underneath the luxurious appointments this sharpshooter is exceptionally playable and supremely toneful.

Thinline Ash Body

The lightweight semi-hollow ash body is comfortable for extended gigging and adds a warmth and resonance unique to Telecaster Thinline models.

Flame Maple Neck With Soft “V” To “C” Profile

The Soft “V” to “C”-shaped flame maple neck provides rich, clear sound, comfortable playability, and stunning looks.

Custom Designed Fender Gold Foil Pickups

A pair of custom-designed Fender Gold Foil pickups provide hot and punchy single-coil tone with crystalline highs, expressive mids and creamy lows.

Cut Tele Bridge

The cut Telecaster bridge sports three compensated barrel saddles for accurate intonation and vintage-informed tone – combining vintage style with modern feel and performance.

Medium-Jumbo Frets

Medium-Jumbo frets make it easier to achieve wide, expressive bends that add your personal touch to your music.
