Transcending classic design elements with eye-catching appeal, the American Custom Telecaster draws the most discerning players as the embodiment of elegance and perfectly alluring playability. An NOS lacquer finish lets the two-piece select ash body breath and resonate with each note. Its roasted 2A birdseye maple neck has a ’60-style “oval C” profile, compound-radius (9.5”-12”) round-lam rosewood fingerboard, and 22 narrow tall (6105) frets for exceptional play in all registers.
Other features include hand-wound Texas Special Tele (bridge) and Seymour Duncan SH55 Seth Lover (neck) pickups, dual stack HS Tele wiring, 58-'63 Tele Bridge with RSD Compensated Brass Saddles, and Sperzel® Die-Cast Tuning Machines.
