Went Telecaster hunting today at my local retailer and located the new Player Telecaster by Fender, MIM, in polar white and this particular model has a 3 ply wbw mint pickguard w/ pao ferro fretboard (this sample very light brown almost approaching walnut). Also looked over two butterscotch blackguards each with ash body, one MIM and the other American professional. All three guitars had fine fretwork (no doubt pleked) but also each had nice flat fret crown no jumbo curvature to invite lax intonation.
PS. Among some other guitars of interest there was also another American Professional in Mystic Seafoam with maple fretboard and a Sherwood Green Metallic American Special with rosewood fretboard and mint green pickguard - nice!
