Description
Chris Shiflett has his feet firmly planted in two worlds--with impeccable punk/hard rock credentials as longtime guitarist in the Foo Fighters, and with an authentic love for country, as heard in side project Chris Shiflett & the Dead Peasants.
His abiding love for Telecasters and for huge humbucking sound now comes together in one kickass new instrument with his name on it--the Chris Shiflett Telecaster Deluxe.
Eminently affordable and modeled closely on Shiflett's favorite '72 Tele Deluxe, it features a striking Arctic White finish, a four-ply white pearl pickguard, a roaring pair of new custom-designed high-output humbucking pickups, a 12"-radius rosewood fingerboard for easy bends with low action, custom-stenciled hard-shell case, and Shiflett's signature on the headstock.
Tour bus, platinum records and the adulation of millions not included.
Guitarist Jim Root shreds in Slipknot and Stone Sour, and he collaborated with Fender on a huge-sounding signature Telecaster guitar that complements his heavy playing style.
The Jim Root Telecaster features a mahogany body, maple neck with 12"-radius maple or ebony fretboard with jumbo frets, active EMG pickups, string-through-body hard-tail bridge, black hardware and flat finish options.
