I am offering a Fender American Vintage II 1977 Telecaster Custom MN Wine Red from 2022, a manufactured in Corona, California (USA), luxury reissue version of the late 1970s Fender Telecaster featuring a solid alder body, bolt-on maple neck with 1977 βCβ neck profile and 42mm nut width, premium maple fingerboard with 7.25β radius and 21 Vintage Tall frets, sonically hot Fender USA Authentic CuNiFe Wide-Range humbucker at the neck and Pure Vintage '77 Tele singlecoil at the bridge, 6-piece Pure Vintage string-through-body bridge with steel saddles as well as tune-stable Fender Pure Vintage βFβ tuners in a radiant wine red high-gloss finish with black pickguard in absolutely mint condition, including Fender G&G hardshell case, manufacturerβs papers, and professional setup with 10-46 Elixir Optiweb strings.
The American Vintage II 1977 Telecaster Custom is a faithful reissue of the classic Fender Tele from the late CBS era, bringing the iconic look, feel, and sound of the 1970s into your living room. The solid alder body provides excellent natural resonance, delivering punchy mids and a balanced foundation, while the historically accurate three-bolt maple neckβfeaturing a bullet truss rod and an authentic 1977 βCβ profileβoffers a classic, comfortable playing feel. The premium maple fingerboard with a 7.25" radius and 21 vintage tall frets combines vintage character with optimized comfort and precise playability across all positions.
A special highlight of this guitar is the newly developed Authentic CuNiFe Wide-Range humbucker at the neck. Thanks to the faithful use of CuNiFe magnets, it delivers significantly more transparency, dynamics, and clarity than conventional humbucker designs. The sound remains open, tight, and articulate without losing warmth or punch. Combined with the classic Pure Vintage β77 Telecaster single-coil at the bridge, this creates an exceptionally versatile tone range spanning warm blues and jazz sounds, classic Tele twang, and powerful rock tones.
A sound sample of the model can be found above at the end of the photo gallery.
Visually, the 1977 AVRI II Telecaster features a deep, glossy Wine Red high-gloss finish that harmonizes perfectly with the oversized black pickguard and classic chrome/nickel hardware.
An exceptionally well-executed vintage reissue with authentic wide-range sound, high-quality US craftsmanship, and an enormously versatile tonal character.
