Description
Susan Tedeschi has firmly established herself as a powerhouse in the blues and roots rock scenes. Whether performing solo or working alongside the Grammy Award-winning Tedeschi Trucks Band, her soulful vocals and outstanding musicality have made her a force to be reckoned with. Now, Fender has partnered with her to create the Susan Tedeschi Telecaster, an extraordinary electric guitar that blends classic Tele designs with some exciting modern updates.
The Susan Tedeschi Telecaster boasts a modern "C" shaped maple neck with a satin urethane finish and a 9.5" radius slab rosewood fingerboard. This combination offers a smooth and comfortable playing experience, perfect for those who prefer a neck profile that's neither too slim nor too chunky. Guitarists will also appreciate the 22 medium jumbo frets, which facilitate effortless bending and vibrato.
Beyond its superb playability, the Susan Tedeschi Telecaster delivers an impressive range of tones thanks to its custom Susan Tedeschi single-coil pickups. These pickups provide a bright, articulate sound with exceptional clarity, whether you're playing clean or with dirt pedals cranked to 10. This model also features a TBX tone control: below five, it functions as a standard tone pot, but above five, it increases the bass, treble, and presence sent to your amp.
To reflect Susan Tedeschi's unique style, this Telecaster showcases several distinctive aesthetic touches. Its Aged Caribbean Mist finish and 4-ply tortoiseshell pickguard give it a timeless yet vibrant look. The guitar also features custom artwork on the neck plate and Tedeschi's signature on the headstock, making it a truly personalized instrument. To top it all off, the deluxe black hardshell case has a black crushed velvet interior, ensuring your guitar is protected in style.
Whether you're a dedicated fan of Susan Tedeschi or simply seeking a top-notch Telecaster with a distinctive flair, this guitar is sure to exceed your expectations. Reach out today for more information about the Fender Susan Tedeschi Telecaster!
