MATCHING HEADSTOCK
This Limited Edition instrument features the elegance of a matching painted headstock—a design element from Fender’s ‘60s high-end “custom color” instruments—in addition to its many other fine features.

AMERICAN VINTAGE 1958 PICKUPS
This Limited Edition American Standard instrument features specially voiced pickups meticulously researched and crafted to reproduce the authentic design, voice and performance of specific pickups from 1958. Their superior sound and style is one of the defining hallmarks of this Limited Edition guitar.

THREE COOL VINTAGE COLORS
In a way-cool blast from the past, this Telecaster is available in three different vintage colors; each one is an automobile-inspired custom color that was originally used on our instruments in the 1960s.

MODERN NECK AND FINGERBOARD
This Limited Edition instrument features a modern neck designed for comfort and performance, with a contemporary “C”-shaped profile and a smooth satin-finish back. The fingerboard features a modern 9.5” radius, comfortably rolled edges for instantly “broken in” feel and medium jumbo frets.

UPGRADED MODERN BRIDGE
For superior intonation, sustain and ease of adjustment, American Standard guitars feature modern bridges with upgraded features. This Limited Edition guitar has a string-through-body bridge with bent steel saddles.

LIMITED EDITION NECK PLATE
As a special appointment, this guitar features an engraved \'Limited Edition\' neck plate marking it as a special instrument. These are only available in very limited quantities and are destined to become truly sought-after collectibles.
