Fender Limited Edition American Showcase Telecaster 2020 – Olympic Pearl USA-Made Custom Tele

No sales tax for customers outside California.

The Fender Limited Edition American Showcase Telecaster in Olympic Pearl (2020) is a rare, high-performance take on the classic Tele—crafted in the USA for discerning players who demand custom-shop feel without the custom-shop price tag. This limited-run model pairs timeless Telecaster tone with modern, stage-ready upgrades.

The Fender American Showcase Telecaster® was a limited run guitar only to Guitar Center dealers when the American Pro II was released. Dressed up in an exclusive finish with matching painted headstock, it features a compound profile neck, dual American Showcase single coils and a treble bleed circuit. Made in the USA, it’s a perfect combination of striking looks, vintage and modern tones plus effortless playability.

The guitar is in excellent condition.  There is very limited fret wear and few signs of use.  There is one little check line in the finish on each side of the neck pocket, pictured, which is common to Strats and Teles.  

The guitar is 100% original with no issues or repairs.  The truss rod was checked to make sure there is room for future neck relief adjustments.  We set the guitar up and it plays perfectly.

The original case is included and houses all the original paperwork. 

Outfitted with a lightweight alder body, a slick Olympic Pearl finish, and a Modern "C" roasted maple neck with a compound-radius fingerboard, this Tele is built for fast runs, smooth bends, and long sessions. Its Fender Custom Shop Hot Tele pickups deliver balanced clarity and bite, while a Greasebucket™ tone circuit gives you high-end roll-off without losing mids or lows.

Additional features include locking tuners, a synthetic bone nut, and a satin neck finish for fast, comfortable playing. The American Showcase Tele is a perfect fusion of tradition and innovation—ideal for professionals and collectors alike.
