Fender Made in Japan Limited International Color Telecaster®, Rosewood Fingerboard, Maui Blue

The Fender Made in Japan Limited International Color Telecaster® revives one of the most distinctive chapters in Fender history. Inspired by the original International Color Series introduced in the early 1980s, this limited-edition model pairs authentic vintage styling with the renowned craftsmanship of Fender Japan. Finished in vibrant Maui Blue, this striking Telecaster pays tribute to the colorful finishes that have become highly sought after by collectors while delivering the legendary tone and playability that have defined the Telecaster® for over seventy years.

Built with a lightweight basswood body and a comfortable maple neck featuring a vintage-inspired "U"-shaped profile, this Telecaster feels instantly familiar while offering exceptional comfort. The rosewood fingerboard and medium jumbo frets provide effortless playability, while a pair of vintage-style Telecaster single-coil pickups produce the unmistakable twang, clarity, and dynamic response that have made the Tele a favorite among country, blues, rock, indie, and worship musicians alike. Vintage-correct details such as the bullet truss rod adjustment, "F"-stamped tuners, modern '70s Fender logo, and string-through-body bridge complete the authentic look and feel.
