Inspired by the garage rock bands of the sixties and the cult classic guitars they played, the Gold Foil Collection combines timeless Fender® designs with the dazzling style of a bygone era.
The Gold Foil Telecaster® delivers a spartan feature set seeped in vintage mojo. The mid '60s C"-shaped maple neck and chopped brass barrel 3-saddle Tele® bridge provide authentic Fender feel, while the ebony fingerboard, mahogany body and pair of Gold Foil mini-humbuckers make for a unique style and sound. Other features include matching painted headstock, vintage-style tuners with white buttons and 21 Medium Jumbo frets. Long on looks and aces in the tone department, the Fender Gold Foil Collection combines the enduring charm of midcentury mail-order guitars with the style and playability of an authentic Fender.
