## Classic-Style Design Meets Versatility
The Chris Shiflett Cleaver Telecaster Deluxe is the result of rigorous road testing and meticulous design to replicate the sought-after characteristics of Shiflett’s Masterbuilt Tele, while still delivering the quality that is characteristic of a Fender Tele Deluxe. It features P-90 pickups, a classic alder body, Berrylium frets, 12”-radius rosewood fingerboard, and a comfortable C-shape maple neck. The new model comes in both Charcoal Frost Metallic and Dakota Red colorways tailored to meet Shiflett’s diverse playing demands.

## Signature Pickups and Tonal Versatility
Key to the Chris Shiflett Cleaver Telecaster Deluxe is a pair of Custom Chris Shiflett ‘Cleaver’ Noiseless CS-90s. These P-90-style pickups promise a “throaty midrange punch” and a vintage single-coil sound, without the hum.
