Eye-catching psychedelic aesthetics

So break out your tie-dye and strum a few chords on this cool re-creation of the Tele that made a huge splash back in '69.

Vintage-style single-coil pickups yield loads of twang and bite

The original Telecaster pickups had more twang than any two normal guitars, thanks to single-coil pickups in the bridge and neck positions. The Fender '69 Pink Paisley Telecaster sports a pair of vintage-style pickups, delivering lots of warmth and edge, as well as a sizable helping of twang and bite. You also get the traditional Tele control complement of volume and tone knobs, and a three-position blade pickup selector switch.
