Artisan series instruments are custom-built masterpieces, outfitted with special appointments and features unlike any other Custom Shop instruments. Yet with vintage design touches, the foundation and spirit is authentically Fender. Exotic woods, lustrous gold hardware, premium “roasted” bird’s-eye Maple necks and much more—every high-end feature is fashioned and finished with painstaking attention to detail.

MORE ABOUT ARTISAN CLARO WALNUT TELECASTER
Alluringly warm-looking thanks to its mix of a roasted Butternut body and Claro Walnut top, the Artisan Claro Walnut Tele effortlessly melds distinctively upscale looks with traditional Fender sound and design. A Fender Custom Shop original, crafted for the fearless player who’s eager to stand out on stage, this Tele is the pinnacle of elegance and playability.
Two hand-wound Custom Shop 1958 single-coil Telecaster pickups provide authentic vintage-style tone, with all the snarling bite and twang that made the Tele a legend. The neck sports a beefy “10/56” Large V-shaped profile, capped by a 9.5” radius fingerboard and 6105 fret wire for easy bending and low action. Other features include a lightweight body with nitrocellulose lacquer finish, Gold RSD bridge, Gold hardware, Gold anodized pickguard, bone nut and wing string tree. Includes deluxe hardshell case, strap and Certificate of Authenticity.
Like all our used / vintage gear this has been tested for functionality and priced to move. Sold as-is. What you see is what you get. There are some dings on the body near the jack, but other than that, the condition is nearly immaculate without any serious issues, wear, repairs or modifications. Practically as-new.
