About this listing
(Very clean condition. The frets have a full life ahead of them) A standout Fender Custom Shop build that pushes the Tele platform into more versatile territory, this American Custom Tele RW NOS blends classic DNA with a few thoughtful departures. The aged Charcoal Frost Metallic top paired with aged black back and sides gives it a refined, almost custom-color look, while the NOS finish keeps it clean and understated without heavy relic work.This one is built on a ’60 Tele Custom platform with a bound ash body and contoured heel, giving it a slightly more elevated feel both visually and ergonomically. Tonally, it opens things up quite a bit compared to a traditional Tele. The bridge is fitted with a hand-wound Texas Special for that familiar snap and bite, while the neck houses a Seymour Duncan Seth Lover humbucker, adding warmth, depth, and a smoother top end. It’s a great balance of clarity and fullness that covers a lot of ground.The roasted birdseye maple neck paired with a rosewood board feels instantly broken in, shaped to a comfortable ’60s Oval C with a compound radius that plays effortlessly up and down the neck. Locking tuners and modern touches throughout make it a very player-forward Custom Shop piece.A unique, well-spec’d Tele that keeps its identity while offering a broader tonal range.SpecificationsModel: Fender Custom Shop American Custom Tele RW NOSSerial Number: 15914Build Date: 11/3/2023Collection: 2022 American CustomBodyBody Wood: Ash (Guitar & Bass Ash)Body Construction: 2-pieceBody Style: ’60 Tele CustomFinish Type: NOS lacquerTop Color: Aged Charcoal Frost MetallicBack & Sides: Aged BlackBinding: Top bound (.060 parchment)Other Features: Contoured heel NeckNeck Wood: Roasted Birdseye Maple (2A)Fingerboard: Rosewood (AAA, 9mm slab)Neck Shape: ’60 Style Oval “C”1st Fret: .790"12th Fret: .930"Radius: 9.5"–12" compoundFrets: 21 Narrow Tall (6105)Nut Width: 1.650"Nut: BoneInlays: Mother of Pearl (.250)Side Dots: Mother of PearlTuners: Modern locking staggered chrome ElectronicsNeck Pickup: Seymour Duncan SH-55 Seth Lover (4-conductor)Bridge Pickup: Hand-Wound Tele Texas SpecialMiddle Pickup: NoneControls: Dual-stack HS TeleSwitch: 3-way Tele selectorKnobs: ’52 Tele knurled chrome HardwareBridge: ’58–’63 style Tele bridge with steel saddlesOutput Jack: Electro socketNeck Plate: Contour V logoHardware Finish: Chrome/NickelPickguard: ’60 Tele Custom, 7-hole humbucker route OtherStrings: .010–.046Orientation: Right-handedCase: Fender Custom Shop black Strat/Tele case
