The Fender Squier Sonic Telecaster Guitar – Butterscotch Blonde arms beginners with a solid instrument that retains the sound and style of the world’s first solidbody electric guitar. Ceramic Tele Single-Coil pickups at the neck and bridge unleash vintage Tele twang, while a 3-way pickup selector and master tone/volume controls introduce an impressive tonal palette that’s ready to sculpt the mood of any song or lesson. A poplar body keeps things lightweight, while the traditional “C”-shaped neck affords all players a comfortably classic grip for practicing and performing. The die-cast tuners, Telecaster Bridge, and control knobs all come finished in chrome for that legendary Telecaster visual shimmer, too. Plus, an assortment of iconic finishes gives every 6-string pupil a proper Tele aesthetic. If you’re looking for an exciting first electric guitar, there’s no better springboard than the Squier Sonic Telecaster.
Designed for comfort
Whether you’re shopping for a youngster or just trying to learn the tricks of the 6-string trade, the Sonic Telecaster offers a feel free of intimidation and discomfort. Starting with its lightweight poplar body, you’ll hardly notice the weight resting on your knee during seated sessions, while the bearing on your neck when standing is designed to be minimal. The maple neck’s “C”-shaped profile provides comfortable chording and the necessary forgiving nature to combat discouragement while learning the ropes. Paired with its Tele-standard 25.5-inch scale length, the Sonic Telecaster is about as perfect a representation of “trainable meets traditional” as you’ll find — even the factory .009-gauge strings are quick to get used to!
Patented single-coil sparkle
Why do guitar fanatics love the Tele? One big reason is its iconic sharp, sparkly single-coil sound. Equipped with a pair of Ceramic Tele Single-Coil pickups in the original Telecaster configuration, the Sonic Telecaster delivers in spades. From country to rock, alternative, and beyond, nothing beats the sculptability of single-coil tones, making for the perfect benchmark for blossoming beginners. (Our tip: the Sonic Telecaster can also produce a credible jazz tone — just roll-off the tone knob to taste.) Guitar legends like Jimmy Page, Bruce Springsteen, and Keith Richards have all favored that timeless Tele twang, and needless to say, it’s no mere coincidence!
Looking the part
Phenomenal feel? Check. Superb sound? Check. Stunning visuals? You bet! The Sonic Telecaster comes dressed in a variety of classic finishes, arming beginners with a legendary-looking instrument. Additional visual charm comes in the form of chrome hardware across the control knobs and plate, sealed die-cast tuning machines, and a 6-saddle Telecaster Bridge. Make no mistake, the Squier Sonic Telecaster has the sonic and visual makings for a spectacular springboard instrument — all for a price that’s virtually unbeatable!
