Check out Fender’s new American Original Telecasters

Here at Mixdown, we’re suckers for Telecasters, and there’s nothing that catches our eye more than a Thinline Telecaster. Fender have given this newbie a ’60s aesthetic with its Sunburst finish and standard pickup configuration, which reminds me a lot of the model favoured by Curtis Mayfield in the late ’60s and early ’70s. Give it a listen below. 

 

 

There’s also the new American Original ’70s Telecaster Custom, which actually features a geniune CuNiFe magnet-powered Wide Range humbucker, just like the original models. It’s the first time Fender have used a genuine CuNiFe humbucker in over 40 years, and it sounds incredible – we were totally blown away when we reviewed it recently. Check it out here, and keep your eyes peeled for our review soon.
