With a Round-Lam Rosewood Fretboard featuring a 9.5" Radius and Medium Jumbo Frets it built for comfort and easy playing.

It also features the Cutaway Heel Access to help you get up to the higher frets and the Greasebucket Tone Controls which rolls off highs without adding bass. This Fender Tele is made to be played and the 2012 Closet Classic Guitars wont be around long. Once they are gone, that is it. Buy yours today.
