Fender American Special Sandblasted Telecaster Sweetwater Exclusive - Denim Blue

Tele with One-of-a-kind Sandblasted Finish
The eye-catching grooves on this Sweetwater-exclusive Fender American Special Sandblasted Telecaster's finish give it a truly one-of-a-kind texture and appearance. This guitar isn't just about looks, however. Its light weight, combined with a comfortable Modern C neck, ensure that it's a joy to play as well. Texas Special single-coil pickups will inject your playing with undeniable energy and bite, along with plenty of high-octane twang. Beyond that, a 3-saddle string-through-body bridge offers near-endless sustain. This American Special Sandblasted Tele gives you great tones and striking looks.




Sandblasted for a one-of-a-kind finish
The alluringly unusual finish treatment on this Sweetwater-exclusive American Special Sandblasted Telecaster is sure to garner many jealous glances. After Fender applied a transparent finish to this guitar's ash body, it was sandblasted, leaving its surface grain pattern textured with parallel ruts and grooves. Its black grain-filler coat was then visible beneath the color finish coat, creating a one-of-a-kind surface topography — no two sandblasted instruments are alike. Beautifully complemented by a black pickguard, this Tele is an exquisite instrument.




Cut through the mix
You're sure to cut through the mix with this Fender American Special Sandblasted Tele, thanks to its Texas Special single-coil pickups. These overwound pups are built with Alnico V magnets and enamel-coated magnet wire. The bridge pickup features height-staggered magnets and a copper-plated steel bottom plate for increased output, presence, and midrange, while the nickel-silver cover on the neck pickup produces a clear, warm tone that only a true Tele pickup can do. From Merle to metal, these pickups demand attention.




Fast-playing Modern C maple neck
Leo Fender wasn't afraid to think outside the box when it came to guitar designs. In the 1950s and well into the 1970s, the blonde natural maple neck became almost synonymous with Fender guitars. This Sweetwater-exclusive American Special Sandblasted Telecaster keeps the trademark maple neck and adds a rosewood fingerboard, comfortable Modern C shape, and 9.5" radius.
