Description
Easily one of the most exotic-looking Telecasters we’ve ever laid eyes on, this Fender Custom Shop Tele boasts 4 different woods in its construction: a roasted ash body, Tamo (of Japanese origin) ash top and back, medium-roasted AAA birdseye maple neck, and African blackwood fingerboard. But don’t be alarmed by the look! Two Custom Shop Hand-Wound ’58 Telecaster Pickups and a 1963 “C”-shaped neck profile give this guitar the high quality original-era tone and feel that the Custom Shop is known for.
