FIESTA RED FENDER TELECASTER (MADE IN MEXICO) – SERVICE SPOTLIGHT

This gorgeous Fiesta Red Fender Telecaster, made in Mexico, came into the shop recently for some much-needed TLC. With its classic Tele twang and eye-catching vintage finish, it’s a guitar that truly stands out—both in tone and looks.

The owner had been experiencing some issues with tuning stability and crackly electronics. After a full inspection, I performed a setup tailored to the player’s preferred string gauge and action. The electronics got a deep clean, and a few solder joints were reflowed to eliminate unwanted noise. I also polished the frets and treated the fretboard, bringing back some much-needed life to the playing surface.

This MIM Tele is a great example of how quality components and a solid design can really shine with the right care. After the work was done, the guitar felt tighter, more responsive, and was gig-ready once again.

Whether it’s a modern build or a vintage reissue, every guitar tells a story—and it’s always a pleasure to help keep them playing their best.

Would you like to include specific repairs or upgrades (e.g., pickup swap, fret level, nut replacement)? I can adjust the post with those details.
