2013 Fender Custom Shop Custom Special Trans Ash Telecaster

This Fender Custom Shop Special Trans Ash Telecaster packs everything we love about classic Telecasters into a gorgeously-finished package. The transparent finish shows off the simple, elegant look of the premium ash body (hand selected by the Custom Shop luthiers).

The quartersawn maple neck and fretboard are simply amazing. Why is the quartersawn neck so special? Here is a bit of info:
“Quartersawn is a woodworking term that describes a certain specific and non-standard method of milling lumber from trees. Quartersawn instrument necks are unusually strong, straight-grain necks superior to standard necks in almost every way. Quartersawn wood is more expensive than conventionally milled wood; guitars and basses with quartersawn necks are accordingly more expensive. Quartersawn lumber, on the other hand, is milled from logs in such a manner that the tree’s annual growth rings are perpendicular to the broad face of the boards. The resulting grain on the face of quartersawn lumber will be tight, straight, parallel lines that run the length of the board. Quartersawn wood is less susceptible to wear, shrinking, swelling in width, twisting, warping and splitting. It also provides a better paint surface—all highly desirable qualities in a guitar neck. Quartersawing a log produces no more waste than plain sawing, but it takes more time, greater skill and larger trees, all of which make quartersawn instrument necks more expensive than their much more commonplace plain-sawn counterparts.”

Top this fantastic body and neck off with a duo of sweet Twisted Tele and Custom Shop Texas Special single-coil pickups, and you’ve got an absolute top-end Tele…
