Overview

Packed with attitude and innovation.

The limited-edition Elite Nashville Telecaster HSS mixes bleeding-edge performance with timeless visual style. It’s the future of workhorse guitar design—a versatile, unique hybrid that was made to tear it up on stage or in the studio. This custom-contoured Tele guitar’s stunning looks, easy playing feel and flexible sound can scratch any musical itch.

A direct-mounted ShawBucker humbucking bridge pickup, along with pair of Pure Vintage ’64 Tele pickups in the middle position and neck positions give this guitar a uniquely powerful voice. Designed for enhanced playing feel and speed, the compound “C-to-D” shaped neck sports a fast 9.5”-14” compound-radius fingerboard, medium jumbo frets and a bone nut. Polished chrome-plated brass saddles adorn the hardtail bridge and the headstock wears an old-school silver Fender logo—aesthetic touches that give it a touch of class.
