Classic, final shape

This is the final shape of the Classic model, an updated tele in short. The main characteristics I'd say are the volume, tone and switch differently placed from the standard design, 25" scale length, 16" radius, 22 frets, body comfort cuts, plait less heel cut for high access to the high frets. This particular one spots a two pieces ash body, maple neck with snakewood fretboard, brass frets, brass nut, will have a brass bridge, gold locking tuners, Seymour Duncan Custom Shop pick ups Little '59 mini humbaker on the bridge position and Hot on the neck position, gold Schaller strap locks. The finish is very thin nitrocellulose Antique Burst with open pores. You can not only see the deep pores veins tipicle of the Ashbut you can feel it too
