Description
Bold, eclectic, and built with a fearless sense of flair, this Fender Custom Shop Dual Stack HS Telecaster in Lush Closet Classic finish is a showstopper with serious sonic muscle. Designed for players who crave standout visuals without compromising vintage feel and modern tone, this guitar is equally at home in the hands of a session pro, a tone-chasing collector, or a genre-bending songwriter. Inspired by the forward-thinking spirit of custom-era Fender, it marries 1960s character with contemporary firepower.
The body is crafted from lightweight, sort-selected okoume with a stunning Red Sparkle top and tinted natural back and sides; it's wrapped in parchment vinyl binding that gives it just the right amount of throwback elegance. The Deluxe Closet Classic nitro finish adds a lightly aged touch, imbuing it with that "played but loved" aesthetic. A hand-wound Twisted Tele bridge pickup brings biting clarity and punchy mids, while the TV Jones humbucker at the neck delivers rich, airy sparkle with smooth low-end depth. Together, they're controlled via a custom Dual Stack HS wiring setup that lets you shape tones with nuance and authority; it's a true studio and stage powerhouse.
A quartersawn maple neck with a '65 Strat "C" profile strikes the perfect balance between vintage familiarity and modern comfort. The AAA rosewood fretboard boasts a 9.5" radius and 6105 narrow tall frets, giving you effortless bends and articulate phrasing all the way up the neck. It's topped off with a dark-tinted lacquer and painted headstock that oozes Custom Shop cool, while the Bi-Flex truss rod ensures stable setup for years to come. Staggered Ping tuners, a bone nut, and a Custom Deluxe Tele bridge complete a setup that's road-ready and incredibly reliable.
Visually, this guitar makes a statement. The Red Sparkle top pops under stage lights; it's bold without being brash, and the matching headstock ties the look together with refined swagger. Paired with the parchment '63-style pickguard and aged chrome hardware, it feels like a secret weapon pulled straight from a private collection.
At Cream City Music, we're all about guitars that blend soul, style, and substance; this Custom Dual Stack HS Tele is all that and then some. From its high-octane tones to its knockout looks and Custom Shop pedigree, it's a one-of-a-kind Tele built to inspire.
