Fender Japan TL-ROSE MNT Rosewood Telecaster matte

General

This guitar is a must-have for any fan of the Beatles. This Fender Japan TL-ROSE MNT was modelled after the legendary Rosewood Telecaster that belonged to George Harrison. An original reissue with a solid rosewood body and neck could become quite the expense. This Japanese version, however, is much easier on your bank account. It has a basswood body with a top and back of genuine rosewood, as well as a headstock that is adorned with a beautiful rosewood veneer. This TL-ROSE MNT has a matte finish.

Properties of the Fender Japan TL-Rose MNT

Contrary to the original, this guitar is pleasantly light of weight thanks to the basswood body. Maple is used for the neck, which is equipped with a 22-fret rosewood fingerboard Both the back of the neck and the sides of the body have been painted with a dark woodstain and a matte lacquer to mimic the looks of the original. The neck of the TL-ROSE MNT is made according to vintage specifications and so it features 21 small frets, a 7.25-inch fretboard radius and a set of original Schaller F-key machine heads. This guitar is equipped with two Fender USA single-coil pickups that produce the authentic Tele sounds, from clear to warm and twangy.
