Telecaster®, Stratocaster® and Jaguar® models
Telecaster®, Stratocaster® and Jaguar® models
Fender is proud to introduce
three highly distinctive new additions to its acclaimed Blacktop series, a family that expands the sonic horizons of
classic Fender models with high-powered features and design modifications. The
three new instruments are the Blacktop
Telecaster Baritone, Blacktop Stratocaster HSH and Blacktop Jaguar 90.
The
Blacktop series presents a truly unique new model in the deeply resounding form
of the Blacktop Telecaster Baritone
guitar. A true baritone Telecaster, it creates a rich sound of distinctive
depth and character with a 27” scale, lowdown B-to-B tuning, and a tonally
versatile triple-pickup configuration—including a full-throated humbucking
bridge pickup—that covers the entire sonic spectrum from tic-tac twang to
full-on kerrang!
The
instrument features an alder body, maple neck, 9.5”-radius rosewood fretboard
with 22 medium jumbo frets and aged white position markers, single-coil
Telecaster neck and middle pickups, humbucking bridge pickup, five-way pickup
switching, three-ply pickguard (black-white-black), skirted black amp knobs
(volume and tone) and black switch tip, Blacktop Telecaster bridge and chrome
hardware. Finish options include Classic Copper, Ghost Silver and Three-color
Sunburst.
The Blacktop Stratocaster HSH amps up the
already blistering Blacktop Stratocaster HH model with the unusual addition of
a single-coil Telecaster middle pickup amid the full-throttle neck and bridge
humbucking pickups. A scorchingly formidable guitar that was already extremely
versatile thus becomes even more so.
This
guitar features an alder body, maple neck, 9.5”-radius rosewood fretboard with
22 medium jumbo frets and aged white position markers, humbucking neck and
bridge pickups, single-coil Telecaster middle pickup, five-way pickup
switching, three-ply pickguard (black-white-black), skirted black amp knobs
(one volume, two tone) and black trem arm tip, Blacktop Stratocaster bridge and
chrome hardware. Finish options are Black and Titanium Silver.
Those
who prefer their big cats to purr rather than roar will love the alluring sound
and lithe form of the Blacktop Jaguar 90.
We’ve taken the humbucking pickup-equipped Blacktop Jaguar HH and outfitted it
with two single-coil pickups that give it a whole new sonic personality.
Distinctive features include the classic Jaguar 24” scale, skirted black amp
knobs (volume, tone) and an Adjusto-Matic™ bridge with stop
tailpiece. Other features include an alder body, maple neck, 9.5”-radius
rosewood fretboard with 22 medium jumbo frets and aged white position markers,
three-way toggle pickup switching, three-ply pickguard (black-white-black) and
chrome hardware. Finish options include Two-color Sunburst and Candy Apple Red.
