Fender Custom Shop 1959 Telecaster Custom Relic Electric Guitar, Wide Fade Chocolate 3-Color Sunburst

The 1959 double-bound Telecaster Custom elevated the rugged workingman's guitar with refined aesthetics. The Custom Shop '59 Telecaster Custom Relic pays homage to the rare early 1959 model, featuring a one-piece maple neck seamlessly integrated with modern enhancements. The select alder body (or ash on Sunburst finish) is elegantly bound and boasts a Relic lacquer finish. The quartersawn maple neck with a 1959 "D" profile, 9.5" radius, and 21 narrow tall frets offers a comfortable and cherished feel.

Hand-wound Custom Shop Texas Special pickups connect to a three-way switch and modern Tele® wiring with the Greasebucket tone circuit, preserving mid-range while reducing highs. Additional features include a parchment pickguard, '59/'60 Tele bridge with brass barrel saddles, vintage-style tuning machines, bone nut, and wing string tree. Comes with a deluxe hardshell case, strap, and certificate of authenticity.
