Fender Road Worn™ '72 Telecaster Custom Electric Guitar

1972 was a magical year for the Telecaster® guitar, which was then available in several new designs and with more options than ever before.

The Roadworn ’72 Telecaster Custom features many of those options, including an alder body, a C-shaped maple neck, bullet truss rod, ’70s vintage hardtail strings-through Strat® bridge, three-bolt neckplate, a Wide Range humbucking pickup at the neck and a traditional single-coil pickup at the bridge.
