T-style electric guitar with ash body, three single coil pickups and 2-point tremolo, including case
The Fender Limited Edition Strat-Tele Hybrid MN 2-Color Sunburst from the Parallel Universe series inspires the eye with its familiar yet somewhat"different" appearance. The classic Telecaster ash body, for example, carries the curved pickguard known from the Strat with three custom shop'69 Single Coils. The screwed maple neck in the "Modern Deep C" profile is also adorned by the headstock taken from the Fender Stratocaster. The Fender Parallel Universe Strat-Tele Hybrid is a versatile instrument that is ideal for blues, rock, alternative or pop. On the hardware side, too, this unique electric guitar is based on the Strat and uses a Fender 2-Point Synchronized Tremolo and precise Fender Cast/Sealed Tuner.
Construction between Strat and Tele
In terms of design, the Fender Limited Edition Strat-Tele Hybrid MN 2-Color Sunburst bridges the gap between the two probably most legendary designs Leo Fenders. Accordingly, the body is made of ash in the typical Telecaster style, whose grain remains visible through the classic sunburst finish. The typical one-piece maple neck is also fixed with four screws and carries the headstock of the Stratocaster, while the "Modern Deep C" profile guarantees a high playing comfort.
Three Custom Shop Single Coil in Mint Green Pickguard
The curved pickguard in Mint Green is also from the Fender Stratocaster and is equipped with three Fender Custom Shop '69 Single Coil Pickups. Thus, the Fender Limited Edition Strat-Tele Hybrid delivers a full sound of the typical belliness on the amplifier, which provides the perfect basis for singing blues licks and hot rock riffs with enormous assertiveness. The pickups are managed using the classic circuit consisting of a 5-way blade switch, a volume control and two tone potentiometers, which can be used to retrieve a wide range of tones.
Stratocaster tremolo and precise tuners
The hardware used on the Fender Limited Edition Strat-Tele Hybrid also comes from the Stratocaster. Accordingly, the Fender 2-Point Synchronized Tremolo is used on the body. With its smooth handling and high tuning stability it invites to decorate melodies and chords with dazzling vibratos. Six Fender Deluxe Cast/Sealed tuners on the headstock behind the bone saddle ensure accurate and stable tuning.
