Standard Tele - Maple Neck in Candy Apple Red
This product is no longer available.
Professional guitarists in all musical genres have relied on the Fender Telecaster guitar since its early 1950s introduction for its powerful tone and smooth playability. The Standard Telecaster combines the best of old and new, with hotter single-coil pickups, shielded body cavities, medium jumbo frets, six-saddle strings-through-body bridge, cast/sealed tuners, tinted neck, parchment pickguard and control knobs, and 70s-style headstock logo.

I’m a beginner and this Telecaster has been a gentle teacher with me. Sits comfortably, feels great in my hands. Not difficult to work with at all.

I just picked this guitar up a week ago and I can't put it down. I recently retired and figured I would get my 1986 Fender Concord acoustic tuned up and start learning to play. Long and McQuade did I good job, but my fingers were not liking it. This Tele is a pleasure to play and I'm glad I went with it. I was eye balling the FSR butterscotch blonde, but decided for $200 more, it seems like the same guitar and the red is great.
I paired it with the Fender Mustang 20 watt amp and I have a great starting pair.

Had this for a few weeks. No complaints. Nice tone, no buzzing, nice action. Electronics all good. Just needs the fret ends filed a bit. Best guitar for the money.

After a fare bit of homework between the U.S. and Mexican Standard Tele I decided that there was very little difference in the sound of the two. Certainly not a thousand dollars worth of it. So I purchased the Mexican and I am more than happy with it. Great sound and beautifully built instrument.

Bought it for the sale price of $630 about a year ago. I must say that the Mexican made Fender instruments are very solid and, aside form the serial number, it is getting more difficult to tell the difference between Mexican and American made products. Nice job Fender!

When I was looking to buy a new guitar I wanted to make sure I got exactly the right guitar for me. I rented pretty much every guitar I could get my hands on from Long and McQuade. I tried everything from a Gibson Les Paul Traditional to Fender American Strat, to a Yamaha Pacifica. The last guitar I thought I would ever like was a Telecaster...I was shocked when I got the Tele home. It stays in tune like no other guitar I've played, and the big thing is the versatility of sounds you can get from it. Sure, its great for country, but its fantastic for jazz, and for hard rock too. Don't let its simple looks fool you The guitar is a beast. It plays like butter, and is so comfortable that it feels like it is an extension of my own body. Do yourself a favour and try a MIM Tele before you buy anything else. Rent one for a week, and you will be sold.

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty
A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.
Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.
How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
- Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
- Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
- No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
- Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
- Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
- Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
- Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
- Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
- Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.
Purchasing additional years of coverage
Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.
If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:
- NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
- USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
- GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
- BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
