Overdriven sounds break up nicely with a smooth, warm growl. Clean tones pop and ring with a zing that full-sized humbuckers struggle to match.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWe matched it with a Custom Shop '63 Tele pickup in the bridge position, to balance it out with a slightly scooped sound, and with the ability to get the classic Tele twang.  Everyone here was blown away when we first plugged this guitar in.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe neck will be familiar to anyone that has played 50's spec Teles, as it has the '52 \"U\" shape.  If you like skinny necks, this isn't the one for you, but if you like being able to grip a thick neck, this is right up your alley.  We did modernize it a bit, with a 9.5\" radius and 6105 frets (common on most Custom Shop guitars).  At just 7.6 lbs, it will be comfortable to play all night.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a one of a kind Tele.  Come to Club Fender at Truetone Music to experience it today, or make it yours right here.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSerial # \u003cspan\u003eR17525\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeight: 7.6 lbs\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish Package: NOS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Nitro Lacquer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Sonic Blue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody: Ash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickguard: Gold Anodized\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Pickup: Seymour Duncan Antiquity II Mini Humbucker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickup Ring: Cream\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge Pickup: '63 Tele\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck: Quartersawn Maple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Shape: '52 \"U\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrets: 21\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFretwire: 6105\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRadius: 9.5\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Thickness at 1st Fret:  .990\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Thickness at 12th Fret:  .990\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBone Nut\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTuners: Vintage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eString Guide: Vintage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge: Vintage '51 Nocaster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Plate: Vintage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwitch: 3 Way\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWiring: Modern\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCase: Custom Shop Tweed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel#\u003cspan\u003e 9231006622\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cheader\u003e\u003cheader\u003e\n\u003ch2 localize=\"Description\"\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/header\u003e\u003c\/header\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"item-specs-container\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row ng-scope\" ng-repeat=\"(key,value) in vmSrvInfo.product.selectedSku.specs\" ng-if=\"::value\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Fender","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31086867972138,"sku":"00FCS131","price":3999.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2433\/products\/DSF2761.jpg?v=1633048507","url":"https:\/\/www.truetonemusic.mom\/products\/fender-custom-shop-1952-telecaster-hs-nos-sonic-blue-electric-guitar-with-case","provider":"Truetone Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
