it's really about the sound and feel.  The mid-60's Oval \"C\" neck shape on the rock-sold quartersawn maple is super comfortable and very smooth to play.  It's topped with a dark rosewood fretboard with a 9.5\" radius and 6105 frets for easy playability.   Those are the only \"modern spec\" changes we went with - everything else is period correct.  The guitar is loaded with Custom Shop 63 Tele pickups, which recreate the early 60's Tele sound that is known and loved by players all over.  Whether you need country twang, hard hitting rock bottoms or glistening clean highs, this one gives it to you.\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"gmail-item-specs-container\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"gmail-item-specs-container\"\u003eOther features included are the vintage-style tuners and bridge, period correct deluxe brown hardshell case, and Certificate of Authenticity.  The guitar has been setup to play perfectly by the techs in our shop.\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"gmail-item-specs-container\"\u003e \u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"gmail-item-specs-container\"\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"gmail-item-specs-container\"\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"gmail-item-specs-container\"\u003eThis is a classic Tele -
