The Fender Custom Shop '60 Telecaster NOS in Violin Burst is an elegant reimagining of the classic Telecaster, pairing vintage-inspired character with exceptional Custom Shop craftsmanship. Its roasted alder body is crowned with a Flame AAA maple top and finished in rich lacquer Violin Burst, allowing the figured wood to glow beneath the finish. Weighing 7 lbs 12 oz, it carries a substantial yet balanced feel, while the NOS appointments give it the appearance of a beautifully preserved vintage instrument.

The roasted Flame AAA maple neck features a nitrocellulose lacquer finish and a 60 Style Oval "C" profile, offering a comfortable, rounded feel with the familiar Fender scale of 25.5 inches. A rosewood fingerboard with a 9.50 to 12.0 inch compound radius and 21 frets provides a smooth playing surface, moving naturally from a traditional feel in the lower register to a more accommodating radius for bends and lead work higher up the neck. Abalone position inlays add an understated touch of luxury.

A pair of Hand-Wound '63 Telecaster NOS pickups supplies the guitar's unmistakable voice, delivering articulate highs, lively twang, focused mids, and the dynamic response that makes a vintage Telecaster so expressive. Volume and Tone controls work with the three-position toggle to provide bridge, bridge and neck, and neck pickup selections, offering a remarkably broad range of classic Telecaster sounds.

The guitar is completed with an RSD Telecaster Assembly, NOS Chrome/Nickel hardware, Vintage Locking tuning machines, and a Telecaster 3-Ply Black/White/Black Vinyl pickguard. Knurled Chrome NOS control knobs and a Switchcraft Top Hat NOS switch tip reinforce its carefully considered vintage aesthetic. Supplied with a hardshell case and Fender .010 to .046 strings, this Violin Burst Custom Shop Telecaster is a striking blend of figured woods, hand-wound vintage-inspired pickups, refined playability, and timeless Fender character.
