Here is the Raphael Saadiq Telecaster® in a limited edition. Raphael Saadiq is a guitarist, bassist, and artistic producer who has earned multiple platinum records and Grammy Awards. He is renowned for his unique ideas and vintage sounds. Like his music, his signature guitar combines retro and modern elements to create a timeless model.
The ash body, maple neck, slab rosewood fingerboard adorned with clay-colored dots and vintage tall frets, and the bone nut are specifications requested by Saadiq himself. Here you will find everything that contributes to the characteristic sound, look, and feel of Fender instruments. The retro '59 C' neck profile and vintage hardware perfectly complement the fabulous painted finish, the striking black binding, the special pattern on the pickguard, and the flatter 9.5" (241 mm) fingerboard radius of this guitar. The Raphael Saadiq Telecaster thus benefits from the best of both worlds. Finally, the Tele® Raphael Saadiq single-coil pickups are specially configured to provide inspiring tones that will immediately transport you to your own vintage universe. A Deluxe case is also included.
