Of note, the Vintera models require removing the neck to adjust the neck relief. Nonetheless, this looks really nice. My finger is hovering over the "buy" button.

Solid deal though, always love to see Fender (esp. Tele) deals!

Fender's maple 'boards are glossy, so my fingertips stick just a bit, especially when moving a chord from one place to another quickly. The maple improves and becomes less grabby as it's played-in, but the dark 'boards never grab in the first place. You don't have to oil the glossy maple, which is a benefit, but I've done a 180 and now prefer the dark fretboards.I will say that the roasted maple necks with a matching maple fretboard are not grabby at all, in my experience. It's that gloss that's the problem.
Clearly, not everyone's experience is the same as mine. Eric Johnson plays on a maple fretboard, even. But don't go just on aesthetics; actually check out the alternative and see what you think.
