Here’s a Tele that looks every bit as good as it should sound.This2000–2001 Fender Standard Telecaster,made at Fender’sEnsenada, Mexico factory, has that unmistakable Tele formula: A comfortable maple neck, two single-coil pickups, string-through-body construction and the simple controls that let you go from clean country snap to blues, rock and gritty rhythm work without fighting the guitar.
Thegloss black body with gold pickguard and maple neckgives this one a striking black-and-gold look that stands apart from the typical Tele.
Chrome hardware completes the classic Fender appearance.
The maple fingerboard has the familiar Tele feel, while thesix-saddle bridgeallows more precise individual string intonation than the traditional three-barrel setup.
Serial numberMZ0243123places it in Fender’s2000–2001 Mexican production period.
Also included is theoriginal white pickguard, giving the next owner the option to return the guitar to its more traditional factory-style appearance if desired.
The guitar presents very nicely for its age and includes the picturedRoad Runner padded gig bag, making it ready to take to rehearsal, a gig, or its next home.
