DESCRIPTION
Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition 1959 Telecaster Custom Super Heavy Relic Faded Aged 3 Tone Sunburst
Fender Custom Shop’s 1959 Telecaster Custom is an absolute stunner. It has a striking vintage look that’s brought about by a Super Heavy Relic job that shows realistic play wear throughout its body and hardware. Its thick binding and three-ply white pickguard really make the guitar’s relic job and Faded Aged Chocolate 3-Color Sunburst finish stand out. Plus, its nitrocellulose lacquer-finished 5/4 quartersawn maple neck and two-piece ash body give this Tele a great combination of sturdiness and playability, with striking woodgrain figuring in the flame maple. Its AA Flamed Maple neck comes with a ‘59 Large “C” profile, giving players a more substantial neck feel than your usual “C” profile, and thanks to its relic’d neck back, you get a smooth, satisfying playing experience up and down its 9.5” to 12” compound-radius AAA rosewood fingerboard. A Tele ‘58-‘63 string-thru bridge, Vintage-Style Fender logo tuners and knurled dome knobs further this 1960 Telecaster’s vintage authenticity. This Tele Custom’s set of pickups is quite remarkable as well, with two tried-and-true hand-wound single-coil pickups: a Twisted Tele neck pickup for extra bite and output when you need it, and an Original Black Guard (OBG) bridge pickup for more traditional Tele twang.
