Think of the Tele Special as the traditional Tele guitar's mischievous brother with its neck-position alnico single coil Strat pickup, hot ceramic humbucker bridge pickup, and hardtail, string-thru bridge. Its no-pickguard design gives it a unique look to match its sound - all at an outstanding price! Other details include an alder body (even at this price!), C-shape maple neck, 21-fret rosewood fingerboard, and chrome hardware.
