Fender Richie Kotzen Telecaster - 2-Tone Sunburst with Maple Fingerboard
The Fender Richie Kotzen Telecaster is a stunning signature model that perfectly reflects the virtuosity and style of the renowned guitarist. Dressed in a classic 2-Tone Sunburst finish, its ash body boasts a highly figured flame maple top, giving it a bold and eye-catching aesthetic that stands out both on stage and in the studio. The body's natural resonance and brightness deliver a rich, articulate tone that Telecasters are famous for, while the flame maple top adds a touch of warmth and clarity.
The maple neck features a large "C" shape profile, designed for comfortable playability, especially for players who prefer a thicker neck feel. Its maple fingerboard enhances the brightness of the guitar's tone and offers smooth playability across all 22 jumbo frets, making bends and fast runs feel effortless.
Equipped with a pair of DiMarzio pickups—a DP173 Twang King single-coil in the neck and a DP384 Chopper T humbucker in the bridge—the Richie Kotzen Telecaster offers a versatile tonal palette. The Twang King delivers crisp, dynamic tones with classic Tele spank, while the Chopper T provides punchy, high-output sounds perfect for solos and heavier playing. Together, they cover a wide range of genres, from country and blues to rock and fusion.
Additional features include a 6-saddle vintage-style Tele bridge, gold hardware for an elegant touch, and a single-ply cream pickguard that complements the guitar’s sunburst finish beautifully. With its high-end appointments, versatile electronics, and exceptional craftsmanship, the Fender Richie Kotzen Telecaster is built to inspire and perform at the highest level.
