Description
The Cabronita Telecaster Thinline combines Fender's striking Cabronita styling with traditional lightweight Thinline design. With its semi-hollow ash body with f-hole and dual Fideli'Tron humbucking pickups, it's a truly distinctive and powerful take on Fender's first electric guitar.
Other features include a modern C-shaped maple neck with urethane finish, 9.5-radius maple fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets and black-dot inlays, three-way toggle pickup switching, single-ply pickguard (black on White Blonde and Two-color Sunburst models; white on Shoreline Gold model), single knurled-chrome master volume control and vintage-style string-through-body Stratocaster hard-tail bridge.

Fender Cabronita Telecaster Thinline
One of my favorite guitars. Love the way the neck plays. It's very easy to bend. The Filtertronics are a +1 for me.
