The Artisan Tamo Ash Tele flaunts a Tamo ash top and back over a roasted ash body, while offering a refined and elegant take on the electric guitar from the Fender Custom Shop. Visually and sonically exciting, the Artisan Tamo Ash Tele adrenalizes with an ornate, highly figured aesthetic that’s stage-ready, finished with a wide-fade lacquer finish. The 4A roasted flame maple neck with a Macassar ebony fingerboard and a set of hot, hand-wound Custom Shop Loaded Nocaster® pickups make it a dream to play and look at.
Other features include a 1963 “C”-shaped neck profile, 9.5”-12” compound-radius fingerboard, 21 6105 frets, 3-way switch, Fat ‘50s Tele wiring, single-ply gold anodized pickguard, RSD Tele bridge, vintage-style tuning machines with Fender logo, bone nut and string tree. Includes deluxe hardshell case, strap and Certificate of Authenticity.
