With its versatile pickups and gorgeous Charcoal Frost Metallic finish, this Tele is a striking guitar that looks and sounds killer in any setting. If you've been searching for a premium Custom Shop Fender that blends classic designs with advanced modern features, you can't beat this incredible Telecaster.
The American Custom Telecaster features a two-piece select ash body that gives it a sweet, full sound with excellent sustain and bright, bell-like highs. Its NOS lacquer finish lets the body breathe and resonate better, and its roasted 2A birdseye maple neck has a gorgeous appearance. It doesn't just look great, though - the neck's 1960 Oval "C" profile and compound-radius rosewood fingerboard play with a smooth, fast response, making it great for a wide range of styles and techniques.
Giving this guitar its signature sound is a hand-wound Texas Special Tele bridge pickup and a Seymour Duncan SH55 Seth Lover neck humbucker. Together, these pickups cover all the tonal bases - whether you need that rich, warm, humbucking warmth or that bright Telecaster twang, this axe is more than capable of delivering the goods.
Complete with a '58-'63 Tele Bridge with RSD compensated brass saddles and Sperzel die-cast tuners, the Custom Shop American Custom Telecaster is excellent for players seeking a phenomenal modern Fender with a sleek aesthetic.
