The Deluxe Blackout Esquire is a tonally versatile performer with a unique (for a Tele) three-pickup design. A distinctive entry intro the Fender family, this Tele growls, snaps, and screams with flexible tone that can match any song. The alder body bears a highly durable gloss polyurethane finish that will easily stand up to hard playing, keeping the instrument like new for years to come. The neck may be from another Fender instrument since it doesn't have a serial number designation on it, and the back plate is clear of a number as well. A contoured neck heel and 4-bolt asymmetrical neck plate allows players to comfortably reach the upper registers of the neck. The flatter 12" radius fingerboard makes it easy to play fast leads and perform deep bends without fretting out. Sporting one open single coil and two 'lipstick' pickups this guitar cranks out rich, articulate tone, with the balanced string response, definition, and twang you've come to expect from a genuine Fender instrument. Flexible five-way Strat-O-Tune pickup switching unlocks various pickup combinations, and provides the perfect sound for any performance.
