This Fender Custom Shop '60s Rosewood Telecaster is perfect for players who are looking for a guitar that captures the spirit of the original vintage models while offering modern craftsmanship and features.

Why We Love This

This 2016 Custom Shop LTD Rosewood Telecaster is a recreation of the iconic all-rosewood Telecaster that gained popularity in the late 1960s and early 1970s. The original rosewood Telecaster was initially produced as a special run for artists like George Harrison and Steve Cropper, and later became a regular production guitar from 1969 to 1972.

Compared to more traditional ash or alder woods used for Telecasters, the all-rosewood construction gives this guitar a distinctive tonal character that's often described as more understated. Its chambered body and maple block not only contributes to the guitar's lightness, it also adds to the sustain.
