Paying homage to the double-bound Tele® models of the late ’50s and ’60s, the Classic Vibe™ Custom Telecaster® delivers vintage looks with modern versatility. Loaded with a Fender-Designed™ alnico single-coil bridge pickup and a rich-sounding humbucker at the neck, this SH configuration offers a wide range of classic and powerful tones.
A Bigsby®-licensed vibrato tailpiece adds expressive pitch control, while the string-through design and floating bridge with barrel saddles ensure stable intonation and smooth performance. Finished off with retro-correct headstock markings, nickel-plated hardware, and a vintage-tinted gloss neck, this Squier® is a stylish throwback packed with bold tone and timeless feel.
