Fender Blacktop Telecaster HH

Introducing the all new Fender® Blacktop Telecaster HH series electric guitars. The Blacktop Series is absolutely the most easily affordable humbucking pickup-equipped models Fender has ever brought you, in utterly cool new versions of our most venerable guitars-the Stratocaster®, Telecaster®, Jazzmaster® and Jaguar®. The Blacktop Telecaster HH is a no-nonsense dual-bucker Tele that'll blow your mind without breaking the bank. Vintage-style Fender Blacktop alnico humbucking pickups deliver the hot high-gain power of today's most aggressive sounds; other distinctive touches include skirted black amp knobs, reversed control plate and a vintage-style hard-tail bridge with six grooved saddles for optimum string alignment.

Fender's new and innovative Blacktop guitar series expands the sonic horizon of the classic Fender Telecaster® guitar by powering it with high-gain humbucking pickups.

Sleek and supercharged, the Blacktop Telecaster HH has dual over-wound alnico humbucking pickups, with other distinctive touches including skirted black amp knobs, a reversed chrome control plate and a hard-tail bridge. Other features include an alder body, maple neck with 9.5"-radius rosewood or maple fretboard, 22 medium jumbo frets, gloss polyester finish and chrome hardware.
