The Galactic Purple Standard Tele was available with both rosewood or maple fretboard (excepting the HS model shown below, which came only with a rosewood neck).

Yep, this Fat Telecaster was part of the Standard series. Fender never released an Affinity Tele with the humbucker at the neck.

This model is no longer made.

i owned one of these for awhile, mine was purple, had standard tele pick ups, and a rosewood board, nice guitar hated the purple, but my purple was closer to barney purple that looks like a darker shade.

This is a Standard and the string do go thru the body. You can see the string ball ends on an Affinity
