The Fender® American Vintage II series is not only visually inspired by the historic designs that wrote music history. We have also reproduced many details typical of the era exactly: Bodies, necks and hardware, premium finishes and pickups that are carefully matched to the tone of the original model year. Thanks to traditional Fender craftsmanship, each instrument embodies the authentic character and sound of the original model.


The Telecaster® Thinline made its debut in July 1968 with a semi-hollow design that allowed us to build a lightweight instrument from the relatively heavy ash wood. At the end of 1971, the new creation was given an expansive pearloid pickguard with two wide range humbuckers. by 1972, the second generation Telecaster Thinline had successfully completed its first year of production. Incidentally, it was the first six-string Fender instrument with humbucker pickups and the first Tele® with six individually adjustable string saddles. The American Vintage II 1972 Telecaster® Thinline has the same sound, look and feel as the original.


The hard rock maple neck with 7.25" fretboard radius and vintage tall frets is fantastically comfortable to play. The sound of the American Vintage II 1972 Telecaster® Thinline also spoils even the most demanding players, as the humbuckers are fitted with our original CuNiFe magnets. Also typical of the 1972 production year are the bullet neck setting and the triple-bolted neck plate with micro-tilt tuners, the tuners with F-embossing and the string-through-body bridge with six bent steel string riders. The semi-hollow ash body is available in Aged Natural, 3-Colour Sunburst and Lake Placid Blue.


The American Vintage II series brings back classic Fender models in their original form. Ideal for musicians who love our vintage tone and feel and appreciate the highest quality - down to the last screw. Fender American Vintage II. The stuff legends are made of.

Fender gilt als einer der größten Hersteller und Wegbereiter der Solidbody-Gitarren. Als Schöpfer der Telecaster und Stratocaster schuf Gründer Leo Fender Meilensteine in der Geschichte elektrischer Gitarren und damit einen Kult. Schon der Name Fender genügt, um im Gehirn Melodien, Erinnerungen und Emotionen zu erzeugen. Wer eine Fender Telecaster oder eine Fender Stratocaster hört, dem kommen sofort legendäre Songs wie "Purple Haze" von Jimi Hendrix , "Smoke on the Water" von Deep Purple, "Cocaine" von Eric Clapton ins Ohr. Eine lange Geschichte steht ebenso hinter den berühmten Fender Amps. Leo Fender hat mit dem Bau von Gitarrenverstärkern bereits angefangen, bevor er die ersten Gitarren baute. Diese waren natürlich in Röhrentechnik gebaut, Fender begann erst in den späten 60er Jahren mit solidstate Modellen...
