2013 Fender Custom Shop ’60s Closet Classic Telecaster (SOLD)
SOLD
This Tele is simply stunning. It’s probably the most sought after Tele design…double bound ash body, with a wonderful sunburst nitro finish…
Look at these features: double bound, slab side alder body, indian rosewood neck, nocaster ashtray bridge, handwound pickups, mid 60’s oval c shaped quartersawn (!!!) neck (and it has some light flames!), modern wiring, medium jumbo frets…

Why is the quartersawn neck so special? Here is a bit of info:
“Quartersawn is a woodworking term that describes a certain specific and non-standard method of milling lumber from trees. Quartersawn instrument necks are unusually strong, straight-grain necks superior to standard necks in almost every way. Quartersawn wood is more expensive than conventionally milled wood; guitars and basses with quartersawn necks are accordingly more expensive. Quartersawn lumber, on the other hand, is milled from logs in such a manner that the tree’s annual growth rings are perpendicular to the broad face of the boards. The resulting grain on the face of quartersawn lumber will be tight, straight, parallel lines that run the length of the board. Quartersawn wood is less susceptible to wear, shrinking, swelling in width, twisting, warping and splitting. It also provides a better paint surface—all highly desirable qualities in a guitar neck. Quartersawing a log produces no more waste than plain sawing, but it takes more time, greater skill and larger trees, all of which make quartersawn instrument necks more expensive than their much more commonplace plain-sawn counterparts.”
The 3TS nitrocellulose finish is classic, just like to original 62 Tele. You won’t find a better Custom Shop Tele I’m sure…New in 2013 from the Time Machine Series.
