Product Information

The Fender Baja Telecaster is known for its unique look and its customization options. This is best described as an unconventional Telecaster for eccentric Fender enthusiasts. A six-string, solid-body electric guitar, this model is part of the well-loved Telecaster series.Harkening back to the early days of rock, this Baja Tele captures the imagination of old-school rock guitar aficionados. The Baja guitar was designed by acclaimed Fender Custom Shop Master Builder Chris Fleming. He has included many mods that transform this model into a true Fender Classic Player.This guitar has been designed to be easy to play. The bolt-on maple neck is slightly thicker than that on a true period Tele. The neck shape is a soft V and has a great feel in the hand. The neck has been carefully fitted into each unit. Thanks to the tailor-made neck and the maple fingerboard with smooth frets, this is a fast and highly playable instrument. Maple is a sturdy wood that stands up to frequent playing. When used for the neck and fingerboard, it also helps produce a slightly brighter tone than a material such as rosewood.The hardware for this instrument is impressive: The headstock features Ping vintage-style tuners, and there is a Twisted Tele pickup in the neck as well as a single-coil Broadcaster pickup in the bridge. The pickups are the heart of the unique tone Fender Tele guitars produce. The tone circuitry in this model is unique, a sign of the attention to detail that went into building these instruments. There is an S-1 switch, which allows the guitarist to toggle between a variety of tones. Other controls include master volume, master tone, and a four-way pickup selector. The pickups are custom-shop-designed. Finally, it features an American Vintage string-through-body Telecaster bridge. This includes three brass saddles. Carefully selected accessories such as bright strings and period amps can complete the classic sound this guitar produces.The unique look is unconventional for an electric guitar. The blonde body is made of solid ash, and the finish is polyester. As a tonewood, ash is known for the clear, bright, high notes and rich resonance it produces. Mid-range notes can vary among individual guitars, giving each unit a unique sound.This is a lightweight wood that Fender has used for its electric guitars since the 1950s. It is known for producing the classic rock sound collectors and enthusiasts love. This guitar is a favorite of the master builders at the Fender Custom Shop. Of course, any luthier in any custom shop would be happy to get his or her hands on these Telecasters.Baja Tele guitars are versatile enough to play a wide variety of music. Without switching guitars, it is possible to get through a full night of cover songs. This is a fine guitar for jamming in the garage or performing onstage as part of a band. Any guitar player, experienced or novice, should think about giving this gear a shot for its versatility and authenticity.
