1972 was a magical year for the Telecaster® guitar, which was then available in several new designs and with more options than ever before.
The ’72 Telecaster Thinline features a warmer and rounder semi-hollow ash body, a C-shaped maple neck, bullet truss rod, ’70s vintage hardtail strings-through Strat® bridge, three-bolt neckplate and two Wide Range humbucking pickups.

Just received my new Tele Thinline. Not a guitar I would have had back in \'72 but what have I missed all these years? The build quality is second to none, all U.S.A. parts, neck joint and overall finish couldn\'t be better.
The setup is spot on right from the box. In my opinion, custom shop quality, bargain shop price.
