FSR 72 Telecaster Custom P90

Fender FSR 72 Telecaster Custom P90 on RigShare
This black Tele is a unique model from the Factory Special Run series by Fender. It is based on the Mexican Classic series '72 Telecaster Custom, but is equipped with a set of P90 elements for a somewhat warmer sound. In addition, the body was given an elegant cream-colored binding all around, as with the "thinline" models. In short, an affordable Fender Telecaster Custom with some very attractive upgrades compared to the standard factory models. This Limited Edition version is only available to a limited extent and is used up. So be quick! FSR '72 Telecaster Custom P90: vintage-correct details The '72 Telecaster Custom is characterized by a large pickguard that runs from the top to the electronics and a humbucker at the neck. However, two P90 elements have been used for this FSR version. As a result, the characteristic "ashtray" bridge has been replaced by a Strat-style fixed bridge with six adjustable saddles and "string-through-body" construction. Like a real seventies Tele, this model also has a 21-frets neck that is attached to the alder body with three screws, including the Micro-Tilt adjusting screw. And of course the vintage-style "F" tuners and period-correct Fender logo on the head should not be missing. Double P90 elements The Telecaster Custom distinguishes itself from the more traditional Telecaster by its large "thinline" style pickguard plus different elements and electronics. This FSR version also received two P90 single-coils instead of a Wide Range humbucker at the neck and standard single-coil in the bridge position. These elements offer you the best of both worlds. They combine the rich cleansing and "spank" of a single coil with the warm, full sounds of a humbucker. Furthermore, the three-position element switch has been moved obliquely above the neck element, and both elements have their own volume and tone control.

Hampton

Vintage Inspiration The Hampton is a 21st-century update of the Supro electric solidbody guitar. The elegant comfort of the 1960’s-era beveled-edge Ozark body shape and the mighty sound of the original field-coil pickups have been enhanced with an ultra-fast satin neck, Tune-o-matic bridge and updated wave tailpiece. The result is a modern player’s instrument with old-school style and authentic Supro tone! Gold Foil Pickups The Hampton’s Gold Foil pickups use the same internal construction as the original “Clear-tone” pickups, providing a massive, broadband sound with remarkably low noise for a single-coil design. The mini-humbucker-sized version of the Supro Gold Foil pickup found in this guitar has the same internal construction as the humbucker-sized versions found in the other Island Series models. The Hampton’s bridge pickup is wound slightly hotter than the others, while the middle pickup is RWRP, providing fully hum-cancelling sound in the “2 and 4” positions of the 5-way blade switch. Modern Construction The time-tested tone-wood recipe of an alder body paired with a 25 ½”-scale maple neck and rosewood fretboard combine with the Hampton’s vintage-correct pickups to produce an exceptionally dynamic playing experience. Blending vintage American tone with refined set-neck design, the Supro Hampton is intended for the professional musician who needs an ergonomic and versatile guitar capable of handling most genres of music with authority. The three pickups cover a huge range of tones, from fat single-coil jazz tones in the neck position to spanky funk tones and sparkling twang in the middle, and pure rock power when the bridge pickup is selected.

Westbury

Vintage Inspiration The Westbury is a 21st-century update of the Supro electric solidbody guitar. The elegant comfort of the 1960’s-era beveled-edge Ozark body shape and the mighty sound of the original field-coil pickups have been enhanced with an ultra-fast satin neck, Tune-o-matic bridge and updated wave tailpiece. The result is a modern player’s instrument with old-school style and authentic Supro tone! Gold Foil Pickups The unique Gold Foil pickups found in the Supro Westbury are faithful reproductions of the original magnetics developed for Valco by Ralph Keller in the early 1950s. These pickups, which gave voice to the vintage Chicago-made Supro guitars, have a massive, broadband sound with remarkably low noise for a single-coil design. The humbucker-sized Gold Foil bridge pickup found in the Westbury is slightly overwound, while the neck pickup is reverse-wound in order to provide fully hum-cancelling sound when the two pickups are combined by selecting the middle position of the 3-way toggle switch. Modern Construction The time-tested tone-wood recipe of an alder body paired with a 25 ½”-scale maple neck and rosewood fretboard combine with the Westbury’s vintage-correct pickups to produce an exceptionally dynamic playing experience. Blending vintage American tone with refined set-neck design, the Supro Westbury is intended for the professional musician who needs an ergonomic and versatile guitar capable of handling most genres of music with authority. The Westbury’s dual-pickup configuration lets the player switch effortlessly between warm, single-coil neck pickup sounds, throaty bridge tones, or a perfectly balanced, parallel combination of both pickups for rhythm work.
