Well there's a lot more to this that meets the eye! Yes it only has one visible pickup in the bridge, but rest assured the neck one is present and correct, and hidden under the plate.

Another very surprising feature, if you have never held one of these, is the weight. Being paulownia with a spruce top and back it is featherweight, one of the lightest guitar you will ever play.
Now don't go thinking the weight will impact the tone, this is a true, down to earth Tele in every way, a tone monster for sure.

This is a very nice used example, now as these are made as a roadworn guitar it is impossible to comment on the finish, but the frets, hardware and electrics are all perfect.

Here is the official spec from Fender - 

  • Paulownia core with spruce top and back; Road Worn Black Sparkle lacquer finish
  • Two single-coil pickups; custom-wound '64 Tele® bridge pickup and Seymour Duncan Brad Paisley Signature Secret Agent neck pickup
  • Custom Enhanced "V"-shaped neck; 9.5"-radius maple fingerboard
