Product Overview
Keef's original stage Teles may have been '50s models modded with Gibson PAF humbuckers at the neck, but Fender's own original offering (1972 - 1981) is no less iconic or imitated. One of three updated Telecaster models launched in 1972, the Telecaster Custom (not to be confused with the '60s Custom Telecaster) was the first Telecaster to feature a combination of a single-coil pickup at the bridge and a Wide Range humbucker at the neck. Forty some years later, humbucker-equipped Telecasters are popular as ever. Make an offer and grab the original.
