Brent Mason Telecaster
Fender just launched this limited-edition Brent Mason Telecaster in Black, and it takes the guitar back to the original finish of the 1967 Telecaster it is based on. Previously, this model was only available in a grey primer finish.
The original guitar was heavily modified over the years, so now it is unique in layout ,and with tweaks made by Mason to suit his style of guitar playing. It has the same specifications as the original release, including a Glaser Bender system and a custom set of pickups.
It has an ash body paired with a vintage C-profile maple neck with a 7.25-inch radius fitted with a set of vintage tall frets.

Seymour Duncan
The Seymour Duncan pickups include a Vintage Stack in the bridge, a Hot Stack Strat in the middle, and a Mini-Humbucker in the neck position. This makes it a very versatile guitar that goes beyond the standard Telecaster pickup tones.
It has a master volume, a middle pickup volume, and a master tone with a push/pull switch to switch the middle pickup on and off. It also has a standard three-way selector switch. It should offer plenty of useful tones. These are all set on a gold control plate with matching gold control knobs.

Hardware
The hardware includes a 6-saddle Telecaster bridge with the Glaser Bender System and a set of Fender deluxe locking tuners.
Limited Edition
This limited-run model is going to appeal to fans of Brent Mason or anyone who liked the original grey primer version, but wasn’t into that particular finish. It is just black, so not exactly a standout finish and so it is toned down quite a bit.
Availability
The Fender Brent Mason Telecaster in black is available now at Thomann and Sweetwater.
