The Fender Custom Shop do some pretty special things, and with the Custom Shop '60 Telecaster they really push the boundaries of Leo Fenders vision.

The Alder body is finished in an awesome Aged Ocean Turquoise Nitro lacquer, period correct, this finish will wear beautifully with time and develop its own character even further. It also allows the natural resonance of the body to sing and sustain much more effectively compared with other finishes.

The medium tint Quartersawn AA Flamed Maple neck has a smooth, vintage feel. With a 9.50" radius and 21 6105 frets, the '60 Telecaster features a '60 style oval "C" profile which measures out at .790" at the 1st fret and .930" at the 12th; it feels comfortable and robust, just like a vintage Fender should.

With the Telecaster design considered by many to be the original workhorse guitar, the Custom Shop '60 Telecaster needs a pickup pairing that can deliver the classic Tele' twang. Loaded with a pair of hand wound 58 Tele single coils, you certainly get that famous Tele' tone. 

The original '60 Telecaster's are the stuff of legend, a real collector's piece. The Fender Custom Shop '60 Telecaster, well that's a player's guitar!
