Moreover, this neck’s maple fingerboard is studded with a set of 21 jumbo frets in a 9.5-inch radius to take this ’50s-style Tele’s performance straight into the world of modern playability.The Dream Factory Since its founding in 1987, the Fender Custom Shop has been home to some of the finest luthiers in the world.
