We capture the energy and essence of their respective eras with iconic fingerboard radii and period-correct plastics, matched headstocks and slab fingerboards, classic finishes and not-so-classic colorways. But that’s just the beginning of what makes our Fender Custom Shop guitars so special. We take customization a step further with rift sawn necks for added resonance and expanded control sets for tonal versatility, and every “Chicago Special” Fender Custom Shop guitar features our own custom Chicago Special pickups, designed in conjunction with Fender Custom Shop Vice President of Product Development Mike Lewis.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\"Chicago Special\" Tele® pickups\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"\"\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePotted in shellac for open wide range frequency response\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e43 gauge enamel wire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBRIDGE: Wide diameter AlNiCo 3 magnets combined with thinner 43 gauge enamel wire equals 'hot juicy tone'\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNECK: Wide diameter AlNiCo 5 magnets overwound with 43 gauge enamel wire gives high output, clarity, and punch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eModel Number: \u003c\/b\u003e9237100416\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSerial Number:\u003c\/b\u003e R95893\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFinish Package:\u003c\/b\u003e Journeyman Relic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCase:\u003c\/b\u003e Fender Custom Shop Black\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBody Wood: \u003c\/b\u003eAlder, 2-Piece\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBody Color:\u003c\/b\u003e Faded\/Aged Black\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBody Finish:\u003c\/b\u003e Nitro Lacquer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSort for Lightweight:\u003c\/b\u003e Yes\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHardware Plating:\u003c\/b\u003e Chrome\/Nickel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBridge Assembly: \u003c\/b\u003eBigsby B-5 Bridge \u0026amp; Tailpiece\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eOutput Assembly: \u003c\/b\u003eVintage Tele\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eControl Assembly:\u003c\/b\u003e '67 Tele\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Plate:\u003c\/b\u003e R Serial \"F\" Logo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTuner Keys: \u003c\/b\u003eSchaller \"F\" Key\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eString Guide: \u003c\/b\u003eAmerican Vintage 56-58\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eString Gauge: \u003c\/b\u003e.010-.046\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Assembly:\u003c\/b\u003e '67 Tele\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Finish:\u003c\/b\u003e Nitro Lacquer, Medium Tint\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Blank:\u003c\/b\u003e Maple Rift Sawn\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFingerboard:\u003c\/b\u003e Maple Rift Sawn\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTruss Rod: \u003c\/b\u003e60s\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHead Style:\u003c\/b\u003e Tele\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Head Thickness:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.575\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Scoop:\u003c\/b\u003e 60\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eDot Spacing:\u003c\/b\u003e Narrow\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFace Dot: \u003c\/b\u003eMicarta Black 7mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSide Dot:\u003c\/b\u003e Micarta Black .3\/32\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFret Wire:\u003c\/b\u003e 50085\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNumber of Frets:\u003c\/b\u003e 21\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFingerboard Radius:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.50\" Radius\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Back Shape:\u003c\/b\u003e '60 Style Oval \"C\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Nut Width:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.650\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Thickness at 1st Fret:\u003c\/b\u003e .850\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Thickness at 12th Fret:\u003c\/b\u003e .920\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Butt Width:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.200\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNut Material:\u003c\/b\u003e Bone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNumber of Bolts:\u003c\/b\u003e 4 Bolt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHead Cap Decal: \u003c\/b\u003e67-76 Tele\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePickguard: \u003c\/b\u003e60 Tele 3-Ply Parchment\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePickup Neck: \u003c\/b\u003eHand Wound '67 Tele Neck\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePickup Bridge:\u003c\/b\u003e Hand Wound '67 Tele Bridge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eControl Knobs: \u003c\/b\u003eKnurled Chrome\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSelector Switch Tip:\u003c\/b\u003e Black Top Hat","brand":"Fender","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":34904352424071,"sku":"9237100416-R95893","price":59831.0,"currency_code":"MXN","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0343\/4368\/2183\/products\/fender-electric-guitars-solid-body-fender-custom-shop-1968-telecaster-chicago-special-journeyman-relic-faded-aged-black-w-bigsby-9237100416-r95893-28157673341063.jpg?v=1648036034","url":"https:\/\/www.chicagomusicexchange.com\/en-mx\/products\/fender-custom-shop-1968-telecaster-chicago-special-727447","provider":"Chicago Music Exchange","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
