Modern hot rod feel with vintage ’50s Tele snap
If you love the look and bite of a classic Butterscotch Tele but want every modern playability upgrade under your hands, this American Ultra Luxe Vintage ’50s Telecaster nails that brief. Ash body, Custom Shop pickups, compound radius, stainless frets, and locking tuners all come together in a guitar that feels slick and effortless while still sounding unmistakably old school.
Ash body and Butterscotch attitude
The ash body gives you that familiar Tele snap with a little extra bloom in the low mids, so it never gets thin or brittle. At 7 lbs 12 oz, it hits that sweet spot where it resonates against your ribs but does not drag your shoulder down on a long set.
The Butterscotch Blonde gloss urethane finish keeps the guitar looking sharp and stage ready while letting the ash do its thing. It is the classic Tele look that started it all, wrapped around a platform that is built to tour.
Augmented D neck and compound radius speed
The Augmented D neck profile is one of those shapes you do not know you needed until you play it. It fills your hand enough to feel substantial for rhythm work, then subtly carves away where you need room for cleaner thumb wrap and stretchier chords.
Pair that with a 10 to 14 inch compound radius maple fingerboard and 22 medium jumbo stainless steel frets, and you have a neck that stays comfy for cowboy chords down low and turns into a fast lane for bends and runs up high. Stainless frets stay smooth, precise, and buzz free for years of heavy playing.
Custom Shop Vintage ’50s pickups with S-1 muscle
The Custom Shop Vintage ’50s single coil Tele pickups deliver everything you want from a Tele. The bridge has that cutting, glassy top that slices through a mix, with enough body to keep it musical. The neck is warm and rounded without going muddy, perfect for buttery leads and chords.
Hit the S-1 switch on the volume knob and the pickups flip from traditional parallel wiring into series. That series mode gives you a thicker, almost humbucker style punch that is killer for rock riffs, big choruses, and lead lines that need extra girth. One guitar, a whole lot of usable voices.
Pro hardware that stays out of your way
The 3 saddle Custom cut off vintage style Tele bridge with compensated brass saddles keeps the feel and tone of a vintage Tele while dialing in intonation that is rock solid up the neck. Notes ring true, chords stay in tune, and the brass adds a touch of sweetness to the top end.
Fender Deluxe cast sealed locking tuners keep tuning stable through aggressive bends, wide vibrato, and long sets under hot lights. String changes are a breeze, and the all short post layout keeps the break angle tidy and consistent.
Built for players who need vintage vibe and modern precision
This American Ultra Luxe Vintage ’50s Telecaster is for the player who loves the look and sound of a classic Tele, but refuses to fight high frets, sticky necks, or tuning drama. It is a studio ready, stage ready workhorse that covers country, worship, pop, rock, and session work without breaking a sweat.
You get the top shelf American Ultra build quality, stainless frets, advanced switching, and a deluxe molded case to keep it safe between gigs.
