Eight Pickup Combinations and Legendary Playability

You’ll love the feel of the Brent Mason Tele’s comfortable maple neck, while a vintage-spec’d fingerboard enables effortless playability. A diverse trio of Seymour Duncan pickups and flexible wiring unleash the full gamut of rock and country tones.
