Heres what Fender say;
The 2016 Postmodern Telecaster is elegantly designed with a reappraisal of modern assumptions. A time-honored classic crafted with six decades of "Fender firsts," it has a lightweight ash body with a comfortable cutaway heel, a tinted quartersawn maple neck with a finely sculpted mid-'60s "oval C" profile and Heavy Relic back finish, a fast compound-radius (9.5"-12") fingerboard (round-laminated rosewood or one-piece maple) with a bone nut and 21 narrow jumbo frets, two hand-wound Twisted Tele pickups with three-way switching, and modern wiring with Greasebucket tone circuit, which rolls off highs without reducing gain.
Other premium features include a single-ply parchment pickguard, Custom Shop RSD bridge, Fender-logo vintage-style tuners, Schaller strap locks and Fender "F" logo engraved neck plate. Available in NOS and "Journeyman" Relic lacquer body finishes, the latter of which imparts the appearance of years of aging and light use without heavy wear and tear. Finishes include Black, Aged White Blonde and Three-Color-Sunburst (rosewood or one-piece maple fingerboard); Aged Lake Placid Blue and Candy Apple Red (rosewood fingerboard); and Firemist Silver and Dakota Red (one-piece maple fingerboard). Includes black hard-shell case and Custom Shop certificate of authenticity.
