The Nantel Verdict
The Nantel Verdict
Bridge pickup delivering clarity and bite that no other guitar design can match. Simple, bulletproof controls that never fail on stage. Bolt-on construction providing snappy attack and easy decades of maintenance. The design that built Nashville, powered punk, and defined country-rock.
Bridge pickup with the tone knob rolled to 7 is the sweet spot most players miss - all the twang and bite without any harshness. Add some spring reverb for instant magic.
The Telecaster has been the workhorse of professional music for over 70 years because it does something no other guitar does as well: it sounds right everywhere. Country, rock, blues, punk, indie, jazz - the Tele delivers honest, reliable tone with zero pretense. It's the guitar you buy once and play for the rest of your life.

Fender - Vintera® '50s Telecaster®
For players who want the style and sound of Fender’s golden era, we created the Vintera ‘50s Telecaster. Equipped with the coveted features that defined the decade—including period-accurate neck profile and playing feel, along with re-voiced pickups—this guitar has all of the bite and twang that made the Telecaster a legend. For authentic, vintage-style tone we recreated our favorite set of ‘50s Telecaster pickups. Twangy and articulate, they have the crisp, snarling sound that put Fender on the musical map. The thick, fat-shouldered “Early 50s U”-shaped neck has a 7.25”-radius maple fingerboard with 21 vintage-style frets for classic playing feel. A vintage-style Tele® bridge with three brass barrel saddles gives this Telecaster it’s characteristic twang, while vintage-style tuning machines provide original-era aesthetics, rock-solid performance and tuning stability. Other features include vintage-style strap buttons, chrome hardware and four-bolt neck plate. Includes deluxe gig bag.https://youtu.be/HMZZPp8lNeA
