The limited edition Traditional Daybreak Tele is the striking sister of Fender Midnight Made in Japan instrument - complete with unique finish, vintage pickups and sleek hardware. You won't find many Teles like this one.   The '60s Fender Tele captured exactly how a solid body electric guitar should look, feel and sound. By the mid-sixties, the Tele was equipped with a Rosewood fingerboard and a double-bound body to add little touches of class.   This made in Japan model is kitted out with classy gold hardware and an exclusive finish. The 'U' shape neck and vintage size frets makes this model unique among Fender's latest line-up.  

Construction

Fender's long-established wood combinations remain intact with the Made in Japan Tele. Featuring a alder body, this popular material ensures balanced lows, lively mids and a crisp top-end, serving as the perfect foundation for the spanky-sounding single-coils.   The body is paired with a classic Fender maple neck a gorgeous rosewood fingerboard, while the bolt-on construction provides excellent sustain.  

Sound

As the name suggests, this limited edition Tele provides familiar tones to Fender fans. Fitted with two single coil vintage-voiced pickups, it's everything you expect a retro guitar to sound like - smooth, dynamic and glistening. The hardware follows a similar route. It's fitted with a classic ashtray-style bridge with 3 saddles for great stability.   At the other end of the instrument you'll find a set of Fender Classic Gear tuners. Offering precise pitching, these tuning machines will keep the strings stable and secure.
