Since its introduction back in the 1950s, the Tele' has never wavered in popularity, thanks to its adoption by some of the most celebrated musical luminaries, including: Albert Lee, Muddy Waters, Keith Richards, Joe Strummer, Chris Shiflett, and John 5 to name but a few - thanks to the Telecaster's comfortable playability, wide ranging tonal palette, and highly versatile control setup.

Body
The body has been crafted using ash, a dense tonewood that has a delightfully timbre, producing complex tones that are filled to the brim with warmth. The body has been completed in a white blonde finish, which has been treated to a coating of gloss nitrocellulose lacquer that adheres to the original '50s finish for total authenticity. Fitted to the body is a 3-saddle American Vintage strings-through-body Tele' bridge with chrome barrel saddles. The saddles make intonation control very simple, enabling you to adjust and modify the action and intonation with the greatest of ease.
Neck
Fitted to the body using a bolt-on construction and made from a Fender favourite, is a delightful maple neck. Shaped to a ""C""-shape profile, the neck provides a substantial yet comfortable feel in the hand, whilst the back of the neck has been given a gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish - again adhering to the original spec, but also to prevent tackiness from affecting the playability of the neck. Paired with the neck is a 21 vintage-style fret maple fingerboard, adorned with black dot position inlays to aid in your navigation.
