General
This Squire-built rendition of the '70s classic Deluxe Telecaster comes loaded with a pair of fat Wide-Range double-coils. This Classic Vibe '70s guitar has all the shaping and detailing of the Fender legend that comes at a more friendly price. The electronics and layout of this single-cut solid-body stay true to the original, so you get a 3-way pickup selector switch as well as a tone and volume pot per pickup. Just like a regular set of humbuckers, the mounted double-coils reduce hum while sidestepping that typical single-coil bite and replacing it with warmth and growl. The C-profile neck has a slightly flatter fretboard radius and has been loaded with a set of narrow-tall frets, so the playing comfort is just as uncompromising.
The Classic Vibe 70s Telecaster Deluxe: That Seventies Look & Sound Without the Antique Price
As the daughter-company of Fender, Squire have delivered a solid-body guitar that looks like it's just dropped straight out of that magical year, 1972. While based on an antique, this guitar thankfully avoids bearing an antique price, and the snug playability actually makes it the ideal guitar for intermediate players who are ready to take the next step. This fully-fledged Telecaster Deluxe has been finished with vintage-style hardware while the transparent tint of the neck gives you all the feeling that you have a genuine classic in your hands.
