The world-famous Fender Custom Shop produces some of the most sonically stellar and aesthetically outstanding instruments available today. With each guitar being a true one of a kind, every Fender Custom Shop guitar we see come through our shops is an impressive combination of sight and sound.
This limited edition Fender Custom Shop ’61 Telecaster is constructed with an alder body and 5/4 quartersawn maple neck in a 60 Style Oval “C” profile. A 9 MM AAA rosewood fingerboard meets the neck with 6105 fret wire and twenty-one frets. This Custom Shop Tele is outfitted with a Fender Custom Shop Relic finish treatment that is on display across the body and neck. The finish replicates one of a guitar worn and experienced beyond its years.
Two hand-wound Relic Telecaster pickups bring that classic single-coil twang and snap to this guitar. A hand-wound Twisted Tele neck pickup is matched with a hand-wound OBG bridge pickup. Together, these pickups produce a nuanced take on the Tele tone with plenty of character.
This limited edition Custom Shop Telecaster gives any player who picks it up an experience unique not only to Telecasters, but Custom Shop Telecasters, also.
