FOO-FIGHTING TELE® DELUXE STYLE

Chris Shiflett has his feet firmly planted in two worlds, with impeccable punk/hard rock credentials as long time guitarist in the Foo Fighters and with an authentic love for country, as heard in Chris Shiflett & the Dead Peasants. His abiding love for the Telecaster guitar and for huge humbucking sound comes together in one kickass instrument with his name on it-the Chris Shiflett Telecaster Deluxe. Modelled on his favourite '72 Tele Deluxe, it's an especially affordable beauty that rocks hard with authentic Fender tone.

FEATURES

• One-piece maple neck with "C" profile, "bullet" truss rod and "large" Stratocaster® headstock
• 12"-radius rosewood fingerboard with 21 medium jumbo frets
• Dual custom-designed high-output humbucking pickups
• Four control knobs (volume and tone for each pickup)
• Vintage-style string-through-body Stratocaster hard-tail bridge

12" FINGERBOARD RADIUS

This instrument features a fingerboard radius (the amount of curvature across the width of the fingerboard) that, at 12", is substantially more flattened than both a vintage-style 7.25" radius and a modern 9.5" radius. Feels notably flat even though there's still slight curvature, and is great for bending notes without fretting out.

SHIFLETT HUMBUCKING PICKUPS

Chris Shifletts signature Tele Deluxe is armed with a powerful pair of specially voiced Chris Shiflett "CS" humbucking pickups with nickel covers.

"F"-STAMPED TUNERS

Chris Shifletts Telecaster Deluxe model features the nicely authentic touch of sealed tuners stamped with the stylized capital "F" from the classic Fender script logo.
