{"product_id":"fender-custom-shop-vintage-custom-1968-tele-thinline","title":"Fender Custom Shop Vintage Custom 1968 Tele Thinline","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Thinline first appeared in 1968 as a semi-hollow Telecaster, with a solid centre, hollow wings and an f-hole on the upper bout, which makes it lighter than a solid Tele. The Vintage Custom 1968 Tele Thinline is the mahogany version, in Aged Natural lacquer over a WLS undercoat, with no aging to the finish and Closet Classic hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe neck is maple with a lite tint, a '60s Oval \"C\" carve and a round-laminated maple fingerboard with a 7.25\" to 9.5\" compound radius and medium vintage frets. Two Custom Shop Hand-Wound '67 Single-Coil Tele pickups run through the standard three positions, bridge, both and neck. A 4-ply white pearloid pickguard and Schaller \"F\" tuners finish it in period style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor a modern-spec Thinline, look at the American Custom Telecaster Thinline NOS or, with wear, the American Custom Tele Thinline Journeyman Relic. The Artisan Knotty Pine Tele Thinline RW takes the same body shape into knotty pine with a rosewood board.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt comes in Aged Natural.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe photos show one example. Wood grain and aging vary from guitar to guitar, so the one built for you will differ in the details.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBODY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCountry of Origin: USA\u003cbr\u003eBody Material: 2-Piece Select Mahogany\u003cbr\u003eBody Finish: Nitrocellulose Lacquer with WLS Undercoat\u003cbr\u003eBody Shape: Telecaster\u003cbr\u003ePickguard: 4-Ply White Pearloid\u003cbr\u003eAging: NOS with Closet Classic Hardware\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNECK\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNeck Material: Maple\u003cbr\u003eNeck Finish: Lite Tint Nitrocellulose Lacquer\u003cbr\u003eNeck Shape: '60s Oval \"C\"\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Radius: 7.25\" to 9.5\" Vintage Compound Radius (184 mm to 241 mm)\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Material: Round-Laminated Maple\u003cbr\u003ePosition Inlays: Black Dot\u003cbr\u003eNumber of Frets: 21\u003cbr\u003eFret Size: Medium Vintage\u003cbr\u003eTruss Rod: Vintage-Style\u003cbr\u003eNut Material: Bone\u003cbr\u003eNut Width: 1.650\" (42 mm)\u003cbr\u003eScale Length: 25.5\" (648 mm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eELECTRONICS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBridge Pickup: Custom Shop Hand-Wound '67 Single-Coil Tele\u003cbr\u003eNeck Pickup: Custom Shop Hand-Wound '67 Single-Coil Tele\u003cbr\u003ePickup Configuration: SS\u003cbr\u003eControls: Master Volume, Master Tone\u003cbr\u003eSwitching: 3-Position Blade: Position 1.
