Notes: Crafted in an extremely limited edition in Fender's Corona, CA Custom Shop, this exotic wood Telecaster is fitted with a highly figured one-piece body of solid, highly figured African Korina, a rare tonewood also seen on Gibson's coveted original Explorer and Flying V models of the 1950's. Hand selected solid Brazilian Rosewood fingerboard is inlaid with 50's style clay dots, and radiused to a comfy 9.5 radius. Solid in the hand, the rift sawn maple neck has the classic generous 'Vintage C' profile of the early 50's.
Stylish and fun to play, this versatile instrument has the icepick punch of the classic Tele bridge pickup, with a warm, rich Seymour Duncan H-55 Seth Lover humbucker in the neck position. Lustrous amber blonde finish highlights the figured body to great advantage, with light relic checking for a handsome vintage appearance.
An outstanding example, this exotic model is in showroom condition, and supplied with the complete factory accessory package, including strap, cable, polish cloth and picks, along with Certificate of Authenticity in the original tan rectangular G&G hardshell case.
A rare and striking version of the pioneering model that ushered in the modern era of the solid body guitar. One only: call now.
