This special edition model is based on the Made in Japan Traditional 60s Telecaster® and will have limited availability through 2025. The "Black Pearl" and "White Pearl" models have a special pearl coating on the body and headstock, which when combined with gold hardware, gives an elegant and refined sense of luxury. 

Featuring a gloss-finished basswood body, 9.5-inch radius, "U"-shaped maple neck and 21 vintage-style frets, these guitars provide “modern classic” playability that is unique to the Traditional series. The 3-saddle vintage style bridge and original pickups selected for the Traditional series produce realistic and musical vintage tones.
