A superb gateway into the time-honored Fender® family, the Squier® Affinity Series™ Telecaster® FMT SH delivers legendary design and quintessential tone for today’s aspiring guitar hero.

This Tele® features several player-friendly refinements such as a thin and lightweight body with an eye-catching flame maple top (FMT), a slim and comfortable “C”-shaped neck profile, a string-through-body bridge for optimal body resonance and sealed die-cast tuning machines with split shafts for smooth, accurate tuning and easy restringing.

Loaded with a Squier single-coil bridge pickup and humbucking neck pickup for genre-defying sonic variety, this model is ready to accompany any player at any stage.

• CASE/GIG BAG: Not included.

STRING-THROUGH-BODY TELECASTER BRIDGE
A string-through-body bridge improves resonance through the body and increases string tension for a rock-solid feel.

SQUIER SINGLE-COIL AND HUMBUCKING PICKUPS
Voiced in-house at Fender, the Squier single-coil bridge pickup produces crisp, articulate tone, complimenting the fat, rich sound of the humbucking neck pickup.

SEALED DIE-CAST TUNING MACHINES WITH SPLIT SHAFTS
