Rather than a conventional '67-style Telecaster, Fender gave this model a factory neck humbucker, bridge single coil and substantial six-saddle brass bridge, creating a configuration reminiscent of the modified late-'60s Telecasters associated with Keith Richards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eTL67-650SPL appears in Fender Japan's 1990 catalog\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e with the following factory specifications:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhite ash body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-Tone Sunburst finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaple neck with oval profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaple fingerboard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e25.5\" scale length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7.25\" fingerboard radius\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e21 frets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFender Dragster neck humbucker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFender TL-Vintage bridge single coil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-way pickup selector\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaster volume and master tone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFactory six-section brass bridge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne particularly cool feature is that \u003cstrong\u003elarge brass bridge assembly\u003c\/strong\u003e.
