Texas Special Tele
Like the esteemed Texas Special Stratocaster pickups, the Texas Special Tele pickups are built to offer an overwound, fiery hot vintage-styled Tele tone that rips! Made using vintage-accurate Alnico V magnets in conjunction with black fibre bobbins, enamel-coated wire and a copper-plated steel bridge pickup plate, these pickups are well-balanced with a powerful mid-range and articulate Tele twang. These cutting pickups cut through any mix in a musical way without sounding shrill or overbearing and produce a rich and harmonic sustain that responds well to dynamic playing styles.
‘60s C Oval Shape Neck
The neck that can do everything! Not too thin and not too fat, just right no matter what style of playing you want to play that day. The neck is big enough that you can still wrap your thumb over and feel the whole guitar shake as you strum the strings as hard as you can yet still thin enough that you can effortlessly shred up and down the neck.
Fender Custom Shop
The Fender Dream Factory… Fender’s best luthiers, using the best materials and tools all under one roof with the single unified mission of building the best guitars that Fender has ever produced. Founded in 1987, the Custom Shop was established to take Fender’s manufacturing back to its roots with smaller production numbers and higher quality. Famed for pushing Leo’s designs to their absolute limits, the Custom Shop is the benchmark to which all other Fender electric guitars are compared to!Key Features
Relic Nitro – Expertly aged in a genuinely authentic and tasteful way, this Tele looks like it’s been someone’s favourite guitar for over 50 years.
Quartersawn Maple – Straight-grained and around 50% more stable than a traditional plain-sawn neck.
Narrow Tall – Similar to vintage wire but slightly taller and slightly wider for a comfortable hybrid that doesn’t look out of place on a vintage-styled instrument.
