Fender Chris Shiflett Telecaster Deluxe, Rosewood Fingerboard -  Shoreline Gold with Hard Shell Case

Fender Chris Shiflett Telecaster Deluxe: Foo-Fighting Tele® Deluxe Style

The Fender Chris Shiflett Telecaster Deluxe is a powerhouse instrument that embodies the essence of both punk rock and country music, much like its namesake. With years of experience as the Foo Fighters' lead guitarist, Chris Shiflett has poured his passion for both genres into this signature model. Inspired by his favorite '72 Tele Deluxe, this guitar offers that classic Fender feel with a modern edge, making it a versatile and affordable choice for players who demand authentic tone and performance.

Authentic Fender Craftsmanship with Modern Playability

Crafted with an alder body and finished in gloss polyester, the Chris Shiflett Telecaster Deluxe provides a solid foundation for rich, resonant tones. The guitar’s maple neck features a "C" profile for a comfortable grip, while the 12"-radius rosewood fingerboard with 21 medium jumbo frets allows for smooth, effortless playability. The large Stratocaster headstock and "bullet" truss rod further enhance the vintage aesthetic while providing modern reliability.

High-Output Humbucking Power

Equipped with dual custom-designed high-output humbucking pickups, the Chris Shiflett Telecaster Deluxe delivers a powerful and dynamic sound that’s perfect for both hard rock and country twang. The 3-position toggle switch lets you easily navigate between the bridge, neck, or a combination of both pickups, while the four control knobs allow for precise adjustments to volume and tone for each pickup. This configuration ensures that you have full control over your sound, whether you’re laying down heavy riffs or melodic leads.

Robust Hardware for Reliable Performance

This Telecaster is built for the stage, featuring a 6-saddle vintage-style Strat® strings-through-body hardtail bridge that offers excellent tuning stability and sustain. The Fender® vintage "F" stamped tuning machines and chrome hardware not only look stunning but also provide reliable performance, ensuring your guitar stays in tune through the most intense performances. The 3-ply mint green pickguard adds a touch of class to the overall aesthetic, making this guitar as visually appealing as it is sonically powerful.
