Fender Custom Shop Artisan Figured Rosewood Telecaster - Natural

A refined twist on a classic Fender guitar design, the Artisan Figured Rosewood Tele is perfect for players who demand nothing but the best for their music. The finest team of builders on the planet melded a roasted Fiji mahogany body with figured rosewood top to modern mojo, authentic sound and classic playability—creating an exotic-looking instrument that’s rooted in the familiar.

Two hand-wound Custom Shop 1958 single-coil Telecaster pickups provide authentic vintage-style tone, with all the snarling bite and twang that made the Tele a legend. The neck sports a comfortably speedy “ ’63 C”-shaped profile, capped by a 9.5”-12” compound-radius fingerboard that’s rounded near the nut for comfortable chording, flattening out towards the upper registers for fear-free bending.

Other features include a lightweight two-piece body with nitrocellulose lacquer finish and WLS undercoat, “ ’63 C”-shaped neck profile, 9.5”-12” compound-radius fingerboard, gold RSD bridge, gold hardware, 21 6105 frets, gold anodized pickguard, bone nut and wing string tree. Includes deluxe hardshell case, strap and Certificate of Authenticity.
