A classic H S Tele configuration 🧑🌾
Seymour Duncan bridge pick up
Modern Fender Hardcase
The 1978 Fender Telecaster Custom is a CBS-era model characterized by its "SH" pickup configuration, featuring a neck humbucker and a bridge single-coil. This era is also known for varied weights, often reaching over 9 lbs due to the heavy ash bodies used at the time.
Body Wood: Typically solid Ash. Some references also note Alder for certain finishes like Natural.
Neck: One-piece Maple with a "skunk stripe". It features a 3-bolt neck plate with Micro-Tilt adjustment and a bullet truss rod at the headstock.
Neck Profile: Generally a C-shape or "chunky U" profile depending on the specific unit.
Fingerboard: Maple (or occasionally Rosewood), with a 7.25" radius and 21 frets.
Scale Length: Standard 25.5" (648 mm).
Nut Width: Approximately 1-5/8" (41.3)mm
Electronics:
Neck Pickup: Fender "Wide Range" Humbucker (originally designed by Seth Lover), known for its CuNiFe magnets.
Bridge Pickup: Traditional Fender Telecaster Single-coil.
Controls: Les Paul-style layout with 2 Volume and 2 Tone controls and a 3-way toggle switch
Hardware:
Bridge: 6-saddle string-through-body bridge.
Tuners: Fender "F" branded enclosed tuners.
Knobs: By 1978, these were typically Stratocaster-style "skirted" knobs rather than the earlier reflector top knobs
