Fender Noventa Telecaster Electric Guitar - Fiesta Red

Our Take:

Now, we're just guessing here - but we'd bet our last pick that Fender popped open their English-Spanish dictionary to affectionately name this Junior-inspired Telecaster, which sports a lone single-coil, P-90-esque Noventa pickup that delivers a bite which feels very appropriate coming from a Tele. The Noventa provides an ease of use thats all too welcome in this age of buttons and knobs - but don't mistake "simple" for "one-dimensional", because you can still access a huge range of tones with its two-knob configuration. Plus, with a '60's "C" neck, 9.5" radius fingerboard, and a slew of vintage Fender finishes, the Noventa is a powerful statement-maker and addition to the Fender lineup.

Fender's Take:

Combining classic Fender style and dynamic single-coil pickups, the Noventa series delivers powerful tones, modern playability and dashing good looks.

The Noventa Telecaster® is a stripped-down rock machine – featuring a lone Noventa single-coil, master volume and tone controls, stylish ‘half’ pickguard and ‘cut’ Tele bridge – its striking good looks are matched by the midrange bite and snarling highs of the Noventa pickup. But this is no one-trick-pony – a surprisingly versatile and dynamic range of tones are on tap with the adjustment of the volume and tone controls. A '60s “C” neck with 21 medium jumbo frets and 9.5” radius fingerboard delivers a smooth blend of modern and vintage playability that is distinctly Fender.
