Fender JA-90 Jim Adkins Signature Telecaster® Thinline – White
A collaboration between Jim Adkins and Fender, the Fender JA-90 Jim Adkins Signature Telecaster® Thinline – White is a re-creation of Adkins’ old TC-90 — with some special touches specifically for this signature model. The Jim Adkins JA-90 Telecaster Thinline’s semi-hollow ash body is joined to a set maple neck with an Indian laurel fretboard — a great combination that produces a warm tone with a nice edge. Pickups are Seymour Duncan soapbar pickups, and an Adjusto-matic bridge with anchored tailpiece round out the hardware. The Jim Adkins JA-90 Telecaster Thinline is a sweet axe for any style!
The story behind this Tele
When Jim Adkins, guitarist and frontman for Jimmy Eat World, challenged Fender to design his perfect guitar, a collaboration began that resulted in the JA-90 Telecaster Thinline. Fender sat down with Adkins and went over his old Fender TC-90 spec by spec, making some important changes that subsequently produced this unique model. The significant features include a maple neck set into a semi-hollow ash body, Seymour Duncan soapbar pickups, independent volume and tone controls, an Adjusto-Matic bridge, and an anchored tailpiece.
Built for vibrant tone
The semi-hollow ash body merges classic Tele tone with the added body and resonance of a semi-hollowbody guitar. The set maple neck bolsters the sustain, and the Indian Laurel fretboard adds warmth to the tone. A pair of Seymour Duncan soapbars provide vintage-tinged P-90 tones that cut through the mix.
