Combining exotic tonewoods with premium pickups and appointments, the limited-edition Rarities Collection creates a truly unique musical experience. The Rarities Flame Maple Top Chambered Telecaster features a chambered, two-piece roasted alder body with a natural flame maple top, separated by a black center stripe. The Tim Shaw custom-designed 50s vintage-style bridge pickup adds a hotter classic voice to the sweet-sounding ShawBucker™ 1T humbucking pickup in the neck position. The “Modern C”-shaped maple neck provides classic Tele twang while the 9.5”-radius bridge and narrow-tall frets make bending easy. Other features include a vintage-style Tele bridge with compensated steel saddles, staggered-height tuning machines, black dot inlays, and special Limited Edition neck plate. Includes a brown vintage-style hardshell case.
