Hardware Set for Tele
Get everything you need for your Tele-style guitar
This isn't your typical cheap "bag of parts". If you're looking for nothing but "the good stuff" to build your guitar—THIS is it!
When you're ready to finally build a custom Tele®-style guitar, but you're not sure what components you want (or you don't want to spend hours endlessly speccing each part individually), we've done the heavy lifting for you.
We've included our most popular, high-quality, drop-in hardware and professional electronics (with or without pickups) that builders and hardcore modders rely on to craft their guitars.
Build your guitar in an afternoon
We've tested every part in our shop—everything in this set fits just like it should on our Fender finished bodies. The bridge is already located with mounting holes drilled, the bodies are ready for you to install the neck and start rocking. Looking for a neck? From completely finished necks to blanks we've got the perfect one for you.
Now it's never been easier to build your custom guitar—with only a screwdriver and a soldering iron you're ready to build!
