Classic ’69 Pink Paisley Design

Few Telecaster finishes are as immediately recognizable as Pink Paisley.

Originally associated with Fender's psychedelic late-1960s designs, the combination of the elaborate paisley pattern, transparent pickguard, and traditional Telecaster silhouette has become one of the most distinctive looks in Fender history.

This Japan Exclusive Classic ’69 captures that aesthetic while retaining the vintage-style specifications that give the model its period-correct character.

Vintage-Style Telecaster Electronics

The traditional SS pickup configuration delivers the familiar range of Telecaster sounds—from clear, articulate neck tones to the bright attack and unmistakable twang of the bridge pickup.

A straightforward master volume, master tone, and 3-way blade switch keeps the controls true to the classic Telecaster formula.

The 3-saddle string-through-body bridge further reinforces the vintage-inspired design and response.

Neck & Feel

The Slim "C" maple neck measures .85" at the 1st fret and .90" at the 12th, with a measured 1.67" nut width.

Its 7.25" fingerboard radius and 21 vintage-style frets provide the traditional Fender feel associated with late-1960s instruments, while the one-piece maple neck and fingerboard give the guitar a crisp, immediate response.

At only 7 lbs 2 oz, this example is also comfortably lightweight for a Telecaster.

Hard-Shell Case

The guitar includes a hard-shell case for secure storage, travel, and shipping.
