Fender fans will be delighted to hear that Leo Fender and company have come up with a brand new guitar to top their solid body line. It’s theTelecaster Deluxe and despite its ultra clean styling, it has a number of interesting features incorporated into its design. The most important is the revised bridge system which has six individually movable sections. This means that the guitarist can adjust each string for both length and height very easily, allowing custom settings as far as feel and string action are concerned.

The neck on the Telecaster Deluxe is the usual one piece maple unit, but it has less of a curve radius than any other Fender guitar to date, meaning that the neck is very, very thin, allowing easy chording. The solid body has been contoured so that it will hang easily against the guitarist’s body and the machine heads are chrome plated and heavy duty.
