Player's Perspective
Music Store Live is proud to offer up this Limited Edition Telecaster 90 with a gorgeous Malaysian Blackwood Top.
In terms of feel and playability, you'll be right at home on this beast. The guitar plays every bit like some of Fender's most finely crafted modern Telecasters. But where we get a welcomed departure from the norm is when we get to those awesome P-90's that Fender put on this guitar. The resulting tone is fatter and thicker than it's traditional single coil sound. You'll get more mid-range out of it, which is great for playing with distortion, but even when playing clean, the P-90's really sing. They are super rich in harmonic content and really skirt that fine line between single-coil and humbucker tones beautifully.
Special Features
A departure from Fender’s traditional tone wood choices, the 2017 Limited Edition Malaysian Blackwood Telecaster enhances the traditional Tele style with the elegant look of a Malaysian blackwood top. Strong and dense, Malaysian blackwood has plenty of sustain, perfect for soaring lead lines and raucous rhythm work. For authentic, vintage-inspired tone, the 2017 Limited Edition Malaysian Blackwood Telecaster is loaded with two JP-90 single-coil pickups. Topped by 22 narrow-tall frets for easy bending, the 9.5”-radius maple fingerboard is ideal for most playing styles, offering enough arc for comfortable chording while remaining flat enough for wide bends. The custom string-through-body shortplate Tele bridge features compensated brass saddles for accurate intonation along the entire length of the neck. With its authentic, original-era sound and style, the 2017 Limited Edition Malaysian Blackwood Telecaster is a rare, inspiring example of Fender’s world-class craftsmanship.
