Original Version (1981)
Fender marketed two original models made in the U.S.A.- the Bullet Deluxe and a standard Bullet. The original version of the Fender Bullet was based on the Fender Telecaster but with cheap parts and lower quality and originally sold for $199.00. It comprised a single cutaway Telecaster-shaped body with a 21 fret rosewood neck and Telecaster-style headstock. The Bullet Deluxe had a plastic pickguard with a separate, traditional hardtail bridge while the standard model featured a metal pickguard-bridge combo painted white or black, with separate saddles for each string. Both models had 2 single coil pickups with a three-way selector switch. The pickups were covered with a white or black plastic sheathing. The original Fender Bullet was only available in red (with a white or black pick guard) and ivory.
