Welcome to the TX Tele club...


What lacquer are the bodies if not nitro?


Fender Highway One Series Telecaster Electric Guitar Features:
  • Alder body (Satin nitrocellulose lacquer finish)
  • Rosewood or maple modern C-shaped neck (Satin polyurethane finish)
  • 9.5" fretboard radius
  • 22 jumbo frets
  • '70s styling
  • Greasebucket tone circuit
  • Upgraded hot alnico 3 single-coil pickups voiced for more modern distortion-friendly tones
------------


I can only speak for the 'upgrade' ones as I have a 07. I can say the poly under the satin Nitro is also thinner than the thin skins, and buffs to a decent gloss if one desires put in a little work.
