Every now and then the usually conservative Fender designers kick loose and decide to hot-rod one of their standard models to add a little glitz and glamour – After all when everyone else is saying that the design of the original Telecaster is so perfect that it would be a crime to change it – How can you better the original …?

The answer of course is not to change it – just to give it a new suit or a new haircut, which I beleive is what Fender have done with the new Blacktop series – inside it’s still the great instrument that it used to be, yet on the outside it’s had a contemporary make over to bring it up to date – so just who was it that said you can’t play heavy Metal on a Telecaster … ?

The Blacktop Telecaster HH is a no-nonsense dual-Humbucker Tele that’ll impress the hell out of you without breaking the bank. Twin Vintage-style Fender Blacktop Alnico humbucking pickups deliver the hot high-gain power of today’s most aggressive sounds. Other distinctive touches include skirted black amp knobs, a reversed control plate and a vintage-style hard-tail bridge with six grooved saddles for optimum string alignment. The Blacktop Telecaster HH features include an Alder body, Rosewood 9.5″-radius fretboard, 22 medium jumbo frets, a gloss urethane finish, and Nickel/Chrome hardware.
