WAYS TO PAY:
James Burton, the Telecaster master who defined the sound of rock and roll with artists from Ricky Nelson to Elvis Presley, was the first to receive a signature Telecaster. This instrument is a fiery tribute to his legacy, offering unparalleled versatility wrapped in a stunning, attention-grabbing aesthetic.
The Fender James Burton Telecaster is designed to bridge the sonic gap between a classic Telecaster and the wider tonal palette of a Stratocaster.
This Tele is a true workhorse, built to give you access to virtually any single-coil sound you need:
- Triple Pickup Configuration: It features three specially designed James Burton single-coil pickups (SSS configuration) that deliver the perfect blend of Tele twang and Strat quack.
- Strat-o-Tele Switching: The 5-way selector switch provides traditional Tele bridge/neck options alongside three versatile dual-pickup combinations.
- S-1 Switch: For even greater depth, the subtle S-1 switch instantly introduces series circuitry into positions 2 and 4, giving you a powerful, higher-output tone on the fly.
The guitar is built for comfortable playability and unmistakable stage presence:
- Classic Neck Profile: The Maple neck features a vintage-style '60s "U" shape, which feels fuller in the hand, adding mass for enhanced tone and sustain.
- Maple Fingerboard: A 9.5" radius Maple fingerboard, paired with 21 vintage-style frets, delivers a smooth playing experience for everything from fast country licks to blues bends.
- Basswood Body: The Basswood body contributes to a defined, balanced tone with warmth and a satisfying midrange growl.
- Premium Hardware: The striking Red Paisley Flames finish is complemented by luxurious gold hardware throughout, including a 6-Saddle American Vintage Strings-Through-Body hardtail bridge for rock-solid intonation and stability.
The Fender James Burton Telecaster is a unique instrument built for players who demand maximum tonal options and a distinctive, timeless look.
