Fender Chris Shiflett Cleaver Telecaster Deluxe Electric Guitar - Charcoal Frost Metallic (7 lb 10 oz)

Weight:  7 lb 10 oz

Night after night, Foo Fighters’ Chris Shiflett slices through massive walls of sound on some of the loudest stages in the world. The aptly named “Cleaver” Telecaster Deluxe is his razor-sharp weapon of choice—a stripped-down, high-performance rock machine built to thrive under stage lights and endless encores. Previously offered as a Fender Custom Shop Masterbuilt Artist model, the Chris Shiflett Cleaver Telecaster Deluxe is now available to players everywhere.

Designed to cut through the mix with ease, this axe features a resonant alder body finished in sleek nitrocellulose lacquer, complete with a “belly cut” for superior comfort during those marathon gigs. The 25.5” scale maple neck boasts a 12” radius rosewood fingerboard with 21 medium jumbo frets, making fiery leads and effortless bends a breeze. Pearloid block inlays add a touch of vintage class to this hardworking beast.

At its heart are two Custom Chris Shiflett "Cleaver" Noiseless™ CS-90 pickups that deliver powerful output, throaty midrange punch, and singing highs—all without unwanted hum. Whether you’re snarling dirty or crooning clean, these pickups deliver tones ready for arenas, clubs, and everything in between. Reliable hardware, including "F"-style tuning machines, a bone nut, and a string-through body hardtail bridge, ensures rock-solid tuning stability and sustain worthy of a Foo Fighters anthem.
