With a bone nut and wide dot spacing, the guitar offers exceptional tuning stability and smooth playability across the fretboard.

Nitrocellulose Finish and Lightweight Build

The lightweight, 2-piece alder body of the '62 Telecaster Custom is finished in a nitrocellulose lacquer, which allows the wood to breathe and resonate more naturally, producing a rich, dynamic tone.
