Description
Luthier Mateo Rufini is a builder of many fine, handmade stringed instruments in Italy. He builds everything from violins to classical style guitars and of course his own line of electrics, where his passion truly lies. This guitar is from his new line of vintage inspired instruments. It was ordered in 2021 and has just arrived at our store on 3/7/2022.

The korina body has a satin Ice Blue finish with open pores, so that you can see and feel the grain of the wood as well as let the wood breath. The finish has a unique and soft feel to the touch. The neck is made from European rock maple with a padauk slab fingerboard. The body is bult from light weight korina giving the guitar a stronger mid-range foundation than most Tele style instruments.

The hand-wound Rufini T-Modern pickups give you classic Tele twang and bite in the bridge position, while the neck pickup is wound with 44 gauge wire, in order to give you more clarity and punch than a traditional Tele neck pickup; which would typically be wound with 43 gauge wire. These are great pickups, the bridge position is very authentic and truly sounds like one of our personal 66 Teles and the neck pickup is even nicer in tone than the vintage 66 Tele. We communicated to Rufini our love for later 60's Tele pickups and he knocked it out of the park.
