Might be the same radius. It is described as an American Design Tele Burnt Tobaco Burst. There's is one on eBay, for the double of the price that I've paid. (weird)
I don't have any info on the radius or pickups or scale length. I'll try to write Fender about it.

That's probably right cuz it def looks flatter than a vintage style 7.25" in the pics syl posted. Such a badass Tele.
Weird cuz I think 9.5" is the most comfortable scale I've ever played but none of my guitars utilize it, go figure. That said, a 7.25" board has really grown on me lately...

Wow dude, they only made 12 of those burnt tobacco burst Teles worldwide according to that eBay listing, unique find for sure! Also had a burnt pine one listed. I like yours better.

There are actually four of them on ebay, one for $2200 and three for $2000. If you only paid half of either of those prices, that was one hell of a deal! I'd probably have gone home with it too for that price.

It sound so great!!!
Oh hell yes!!!! Gorgeous!!!! I have the black MIM version of this guitar and LOVE it!!!! I swapped the bridge pickup for a GFS power vintage Neovin (noiseless with higher output) and love it. I also picked up the same spare bridge, they call it a nashville bridge and it will come in extremely handy if you do any altered tunings. And that looks like a orange cap for modding the tone controls!!!! Oh and if you end up swapping the WRHB for a lollar I may be interested in yours, apparently the USA ones are way better then the Mexican one i have. Not as good as the lollar but a definite improvement.

Thanks!! I'll let you know but it mught take a couple of month before I swap the pickup.
