Aged Tones From Heat-Treated Sugar Pine
While Fender is renowned for ash and alder, the sugar pine body of this Telecaster reveals another dimension of the iconic guitar's tone. The pine has been heat-treated to crystallize any residual resin, naturally aging the wood to achieve the rich, resonant character of a vintage instrument. Every note emanates with warmth and balanced overtones. You'll be amazed at the authentic vintage vibe from this modern guitar.

Expressive Yosemite Single-Coil Pickups
Loaded with a pair of Yosemite single-coil pickups, the Timber Series Telecaster delivers tones as dynamic as your playing. The flat-staggered pole pieces increase output for meaty, textured lead tones, while specialized coil windings ensure note separation and clarity when strumming chords. Shellac coating on the neck pickup controls feedback, while the wax-potted bridge pickup rings out freely. From sparkling cleans to searing overdrive, these pickups capture every nuance.

It's the perfect complement to the guitar's versatile pickups, whether you prefer crystal-clear cleans or high-gain heat.
