The original run of Fender's American Standard Telecaster took the underlying structure and soul of the classic vintage Telecasters that guitar players had been employing for nearly 40 years around the world and simply added a few modern refinements, bringing an iconic instrument back into the forefront of all types of music with polished American craftsmanship. A more modern "C-shaped" neck profile and innovative tone control meet in the middle with undeniable Tele twang to make for a guitar that remains the true definition of a "workhorse" while holding value three decades later. Here you'll find a heavily gigged 1998 American Standard Telecaster with an alder body, purple metallic finish, gloss maple neck and fretboard, 22 frets, and Gator branded hardshell case.
