The Nantel Verdict
The Nantel Verdict
Single-coil Cabronita pickups deliver warm, compressed character distinct from traditional Tele designs; alder body with modern appointments (compound neck radius, contemporary hardware) balances vintage character with player comfort; limited Sherwood Green finish; refined electronics yield touch-responsive dynamics.
Requires standard 1/4" cable and amp-appropriate gain staging. Setup-ready from Fender; no exotic string gauges needed. Pair with quality strap and cable for the price point. Works across genres from blues to indie rock without modification.
A limited-run Telecaster that proves Fender's evolution hasn't diluted its core identity. The Cabronita pickups and refined build serve players needing a primary instrument with distinctive voice and reliable performance at a professional level.

Limited Edition American Cabronita Special Telecaster®
The American Cabronita Special Telecaster® draws from more than sixty years of innovation, inspiration and evolution to meet the demands of today's working player. This Limited-Edition model sports a Mahogany body and neck, which offers a warmer and more punchy sounding take on the classic Telecaster®.
Our popular Modern "C" neck now sports smooth rolled fingerboard edges, a "Super-Natural" satin finish and a newly sculpted neck heel for a supremely comfortable feel and easy access to the upper register. Seymour Duncan Vintage Humbucker pickups offer excellent dynamics and clarity, without getting muddy when pushed hard. A stripped back control layout with 3-way toggle switch and single volume control offer all you need to sculpt the perfect tone to suit any situation. The 6-Saddle String-Through-Body Hardtail bridge delivers the performance and adjustability demanded by modern professional musicians.
The American Cabronita Special Telecaster® leads the way into new sonic territory yet retains the instant familiarity and versatility synonymous with Fender instruments.
