Combining Two of the Most-played Guitars in the World
Master guitar-builder Chris Fleming created the Fender Custom Shop Masterbuilt Strat/Tele Hybrid electric guitar to bring you two of the world's most legendary guitars in one package. Basically, the Masterbuilt Strat/Tele Hybrid has a Telecaster-shaped alder body, with the contours of a Stratocaster. And while the trio of hand-wound single-coil pickups scream Stratocaster, you get the simple one-volume/one-tone control set you'd expect on a Tele. And thanks to Fender's S1 switching, you'll discover a wide range of tones in the limited edition Fender Custom Shop Masterbuilt Strat/Tele Hybrid.

Fender Custom Shop has boldly combined the distinctive Telecaster body shape with the smooth contours of the Stratocaster to create the Masterbuilt Strat/Tele Hybrid. They also combined the single-volume/single-tone setup from the Tele with the Strat's trio of single-coil pickups - hand-wound '50s-Strat NOS pickups, to be precise. You'll find a world of vintage Fender tones to explore, especially once you dive into the possibilities of the S1 Switching system.
S1 Switching gives you unparalleled tonal optionsIn addition to a classic 5-way switch, the Masterbuilt Strat/Tele Hybrid is also armed with Fender's S-1 switching system. S-1 switching gives you access to pickup combinations you can't get any other way. For example, with traditional Strat switching, the middle blade position selects the middle pickup. With S-1 switching engaged, the middle position activates all three pickups, with the neck and middle pickups in series and the bridge pickup in parallel. There are lots of new combinations to play with, but the important thing to know is that the Masterbuilt Strat/Tele Hybrid gives you access to a very wide range of tones.
