Description
This gorgeous Tele Custom features a Wide Range humbucker in the neck position along with a Pure Vintage '77 single coil in the bridge. To create an authentic Wide-Range humbucking pickup Fender resurrected CuNiFe magnets which had been out of production since 1981 & are an essential element in recreating the sonics of the original. This Tele plays like a dream, featuring a '77 "C"-shape hard rock maple neck with a 7.25" radius maple fingerboard & vintage tall frets. Additional features include a string-thru bridge with 6 slotted steel barrel saddles, "F" stamped tuners, a convenient "Bullet" style truss rod nut & a three-bolt neck plate with Micro-Tilt mechanism. Professionally set up with fresh strings & low action so it's ready to rock straight out of the case!
