(It’s also one of its most sought-after.) The wood is known for the bold jet black ink lines which adorn its creamy base. Both the volume and pattern of its lines are unpredictable, varying greatly from piece to piece. Grains can be straight, wavy or irregular; its texture is fine, with a nice natural luster. Its hardness and density are quite moderate for an ebony.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnother feature that you'll be sure to notice is the roasted neck, made out of rock-solid quartersawn maple.  The 60's Oval \"C\" neck shape is super comfortable, and is capped with a beautiful piece of AAA rosewood for the fretboard (sorted to to find the darkest piece on hand).  This guitar has the modern preference of a 9.5\" radius and 6105 frets making it easy to play.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe chose classic '63 Tele pickups give it the vintage sound that is beloved by Tele players everywhere.  \u003cspan\u003eThe bridge pickup provides punchy mids and hot highs for that classic Tele twang, with staggered pole pieces to even out the inter-string response.  The neck neck pickup provides a warm and creamy tone.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOther features include a bone nut, a vintage styled bridge, tuners and string tree, and modern wiring with a 3 way switch.  The guitar comes complete with a very unique Custom Shop case (see photos), strap and Certificate of Authenticity.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe hadn't seen a Tele with a Pale Moon Ebony top ever - it's truly stunning.  We picked the coolest looking piece Fender had at the time, which was earmarked specifically for this guitar.  Come to Truetone to experience it today, or make it yours right here.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSerial # R143421\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 8.5 lbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel# 9233002106\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish Package: NOS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Nitro Lacquer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Natural\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody: Black Limba\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Top: Pale Moon Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBinding: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickguard: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Pickup: '63 Tele\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge Pickup: '63 Tele\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck: Roasted Quartersawn Maple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Shape: 60's Oval \"C\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFretboard: AAA Rosewood (Sort for Dark)\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 Nut Width: 1.650\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Thickness at 1st Fret:  .790\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Thickness at 12th Fret:  .930\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Butt Width: 2.200\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBone Nut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTuners: Vintage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eString Guide: Vintage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge: Vintage '63 Tele\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 60's Tele (Brown)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fender","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31636620541994,"sku":"00FCS141","price":4400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2433\/files\/1-Img33352.jpg?v=1764014306","url":"https:\/\/www.truetonemusic.mom\/products\/fender-custom-shop-exotic-1960-telecaster-custom-nos-pale-moon-ebony-natural","provider":"Truetone Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
