Originally introduced for cosmetic reasons, as maple was prone to showing wear, rosewood became s popular feature that also added warmth to the classic Tele tone. The double-bound alder body and multi-ply pickguard dress up the '62, distinguishing it from its Butterscotch predecessor.
In the spirit of the original, '62 Custom Telecaster guitar comes equipped with a "C" -shape maple neck, a 7.25" radius rosewood fingerboard, two '62 Custom Tele Single-coil pickups, a vintage Tele bridge with threaded steel saddles, and features the original Tele circuit with its three-position switch. Available in Three-color Sunburst (800), Black (806), Ocean Turquoise (808), Surf Green (857) and Ice Blue Metallic (883).
