Instruments in the American Vintage II series are direct descendants of the original Fenders. They are built with period-accurate bodies, necks, and hardware, premium finishes, and year-specific pickups.

The Telecaster Thinline debuted in July 1968. The semi-hollow design was created to produce lightweight instruments from solid ash.

The improved second-generation Telecaster Thinline was reintroduced late in '71 with a pair of Wide Range humbucking pickups mounted in a curved pearloid pickguard. Its first full year of production was 1972.

In particular, it was the first six-string Fender with humbucking pickups and the first Tele with six adjustable bridge saddles. The American Vintage II 1972 Telecaster Thinline reproduces the tone and feel of the original par excellence.
