One-piece Maple neck. Hand rolled fingerboard edges. Detailed fret and nut treatment.

Over the past 5 decades, the Telecaster has been through numerous design variations, but its heart and soul has remained the same. For the American Series Telecaster, the original body radius and new parchment-colored pickguard give you the classic feel with a distinctive look.
