HIGHLIGHTS:

MODERN “C” NECK PROFILE WITH 9.5“-RADIUS FINGERBOARD AND ROLLED EDGES
This neck is designed for supremely comfortable performance, with a silky-smooth satin back and our Modern “C”-profile. The 9.5”-radius fingerboard facilitates fluid leads and choke free bends, while the hand-rolled fingerboard edges provide a broken-in feel that’s incredibly inviting.

NEW PLAYER II NOISELESS™ TELE® PICKUPS
The Player II Modified noiseless™ pickups deliver twangy, biting Tele® tones while removing unwanted noise. These pickups are perfect for any performance, sound great with gain and are our most natural-sounding noiseless pickups yet.

UPGRADED ELECTRONICS
A push-pull switch on the tone control changes the pickup wiring from parallel to series for fatter tones. The treble bleed circuit retains natural high-end when rolling off the volume, preserving sparkly cleans and chime-y edge-of-breakup tones.

MODERN TELE® BRIDGE WITH 6 BLOCK BRASS SADDLES
The bridge plate is cut away on the sides to enable total freedom of movement, perfect for hybrid picking. The 6 block brass saddles provide improved intonation, sustain and tuning stability.

SHORT POST LOCKING TUNING MACHINES
Short post locking tuning machines provide a sharper break angle over the nut for increased sustain and enhanced tuning stability while making string changes fast and easy.

TUSQ® NUT AND MODERN STRING TREE
The Graph Tech® TUSQ® nut provides unparalleled tuning stability when emulating steel bends or playing roaring rock leads and produces more harmonics in the mid and upper range. The modern string tree provides a smooth travel surface for the strings, preventing hang ups and keeping tuning stable during the most demanding performances.
