This is the first special telecaster that has been ordered and installed by our store for custom parts for the Slusser Handmade Guitars, which has been our first arrival in Japan!

The "Made in Japan Traditional" series was derived by combining Fender's traditional instrument production aesthetic with Japan's sophisticated craftsmanship.This time, we have arrived the "Traditional '70s Telecaster," a recreation of the 70s Telecaster.The color is Candy Apple Red, made in 2017.

It features a gloss poly finish ash body and a rose fingerboard 21F.The 7.25-inch radius "U" shaped maple neck with vintage-style frets provides classic playability.

The original pick "Vintage-Style Single-Coil Tele," selected for this series, produces realistic, musical vintage tones.The narrow nut width is designed to be easy for Japanese players to play, and the solid guitar craftsmanship and answers that flexibly meet the needs of players are reflected in this series.

In addition, Bigsby is installed at our store and has been customised to a special edition, with three custom parts from the "Slusser Handmade Guitars" installed.The internal wiring has also been upgraded.

"Slusser Handmade Guitars" is a brand that handmade Bigsby custom parts made from high-quality stainless steel, aluminum and brass metals in the United States.With the belief that "we want to create guitar parts that you can enjoy forever," we deliver not only improved playability and durability, but also beautiful carved textures.

The Bigsby Handles "Slusser Handmade Guitars Twizzel Stick Bigsby Handles" feature a wide, curved grip that is one inch longer than the standard stainless steel "Kalamazoo" Bigsby Handles.The edges are wrapped and the three-dimensional shape fits comfortably in your hand, making vibrato even more fun.
The saddle is equipped with a custom-made "Tele Retrofit Custom Saddles."An unprecedented shape will appeal to players' hearts.In addition, the neck plate "Trad Neck Plate" is attached.The plate is hollowed out into the shape of a woodpecker, giving it a cute look.This is a carefully selected item that is not only durable and sound, but also playful in terms of design.None of these have been officially sold domestically.
