Designed for speed, comfort and durability, the American Professional Classic Telecaster's neck features a satin urethane finish that ensures smooth, friction-free movement, ideal for fast runs and effortless chord transitions. Topped with a rosewood fingerboard, the neck delivers a rich, warm response that tempers the Tele's natural bite, adding depth to your sound.
