Tele Custom Body - USA Swamp Ash

We've been making bodies and necks for many years now, and in that time we have achieved a reputation among builders and luthiers for producing wood products of the highest quality.

Our range of Jazzmaster bodies are manufactured in Japan, using hand selected hardwoods imported direct form the USA. We've spent months working with our colleagues in Japan to ensure these bodies match the look and feel of this iconic instrument. 

Swamp Ash

All our Tele Custom bodies are manufactured from Amercian swamp ash, making them very lightweight, while still maintaining the tonal properties associtaed with the Fender Telecaster
