Description
Few guitars stir the soul quite like a Rosewood Telecaster, and this Closet Classic Thinline in Natural finish is no exception. Tailored for players who crave both vintage warmth and modern reliability, it's a nod to one of Fender's most elusive and elegant creations. Inspired by the ultra-rare all-rosewood Teles of the late '60s famously played by George Harrison, this model leans into its heritage while offering refined playability for today's stage and studio demands.
Crafted with a select Rosewood semi-hollow body and paired with a Rosewood neck and round-lam fingerboard, this Thinline delivers a smooth, rich tonal character that's full of depth and sustain. The semi-hollow design adds a touch of natural airiness to the voice, making it ideal for blues, soul, and dynamic rhythm work. Loaded with hand-wound Texas Special pickups and wired with a Greasebucket tone circuit, it balances vintage twang with muscular mids and a defined low-end-perfect for players looking to push the Tele sound into expressive new territory.
Playability is spot-on thanks to the comfortable '60s Oval "C" neck profile, 9.5" radius, and 21 narrow tall frets that make bends feel effortless and chords ring clear. The upgraded RSD-compensated brass saddles ensure precise intonation and tuning stability, while the Schaller "F" tuners and bone nut lock in reliability for long sessions and live gigs alike.
Visually, the all-rosewood construction is a statement unto itself-elegant, earthy, and unmistakably vintage. The 3-ply black pickguard adds a sleek contrast, subtly accenting the natural wood grain while paying homage to classic design cues. The Closet Classic finish gives it the look of a well-preserved treasure; gently aged with character but without excessive wear.
This Rosewood Telecaster Thinline Closet Classic is a rare blend of history, tone, and craftsmanship. It's the kind of guitar that invites inspiration the moment you pick it up-and at Cream City Music, we're proud to offer such a stunning piece to players who demand more than just a great instrument; they want a story in every note.
