Fender Limited Edition Sandblasted Telecaster, Ash Body, MN, Sapphire Blue Tran

The Limited Edition Sandblasted Ash Telecaster features one of the most alluringly unusual finish treatments yet seen on a Fender instrument. After the transparent finish (in beautiful Sapphire Blue or Crimson Red) is applied, the ash body is literally sandblasted, leaving the surface grain pattern wonderfully textured with parallel ruts and grooves in which the black grain-filler coat shows beneath the color finish coat. It’s a truly beautiful look complemented by a black pickguard, and the "topography" of no two instruments is identical. The guitar is also finely appointed with American Standard single-coil Telecaster pickups, a Greasebucket™ tone circuit (rolls off highs without adding bass), and much more.
