FENDER CUSTOM SHOP GRETSCH HYBRID ARCHTOP TELECASTER PAUL WALLER MASTERBUILD - ORANGE WITH CASE

$16,999.00

A true RARITY from Masterbuilder Paul Waller, blending Telecaster build with Gretsch archtop styling and voice. The top is hand-carved spruce, the back hand-carved flamed maple, built in genuine archtop tradition — the goal was a true Tele/Gretsch hybrid, and Waller nailed it.

Fit and feel are pure Telecaster: it sits perfectly on the body and plays fast and comfortable, with a slightly thicker, grippy neck profile. The look is all Gretsch — classic Gretsch orange finish, Filtertron pickups, and Bigsby.

Tonally, it delivers real Gretsch character: direct, responsive, and full of nuance, with the twang and resonance Gretsch players chase, backed by extra low-end fullness from the Tele-style construction. Add the Bigsby and it's unmistakably Gretsch in the best way — a genuine tone monster and a rare find, since a guitar like this only exists once.

This piece has been collector owned since new and is in original condition.
