From our friends out in California comes this Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition Reverse 1960 Telecaster Custom Heavy Relic in a 3-Color Sunburst lacquer finish. Exhibiting a deep and nuanced aesthetic with several captivating visual elements, this Telecaster puts the rough-around-the-edges grace of the Custom Shop Heavy Relic treatment on full display. This limited edition model assembles an alternative Telecaster formula of nontraditional sight, sound and playability for an exciting musical sum. For Telecaster fans everywhere, this is truly a one-of-a-kind creation.

The Fender Custom Shop model starts out with a two-piece select alder body with an offset seam. Formed in the iconic single-cutaway Telecaster profile, this body moves with a familiar alder feel for fans of the popular tonewood. This alder works twofold as a great sonic basis for the guitar as well as a canvas on which to splash a three-color sunburst lacquer finish. The classic-looking burst pattern shares space with exposed alder as the Custom Shop’s Heavy Relic finish treatment wears away some lacquer and manifests tasteful chips and dings across the body for a well-worn visual creation.

The two-piece alder body of this Telecaster is matched with a quartersawn maple neck cut to a Large “C” profile. Providing a fuller grip in the palm when playing, this neck has a feel all its own for a unique playing experience across the back. The quartersawn maple of this Custom Shop is met with a AAA flat lam rosewood fingerboard measuring with a 7.25” – 9.5” Vintage Compound radius. This unique radius pairs the vintage-style radius feel toward the nut with a more modern radius near the body, totaling in a fingerboard that complements either style of playing. Twenty-one frets adorn this rosewood using 6105 Narrow Tall fret wire that assists in more modern and articulate fretting. Vintage-Style tuning machines line this Tele’s matching burst headstock while a Wing string tree accompanies.

For fans of dynamic electronics, this limited edition piece is loaded with a Custom Shop hand-wound Loaded ’51 Nocaster single-coil pickup in the bridge. This distinct single-coil plays with great Tele twang and is only enhanced by its match of a Seymour Duncan ’59 SH-1N Humbucking neck pickup. These two pickups are designed with Dual Stack HS Tele wiring and an angled three-way pickup selector switch that offers a wide spectrum of amplified tonality to play with. Further equipped with fine hardware specifications, this Custom Shop comes outfitted with a bone nut and Reverse Angle Nocaster Bridge with RSD compensated brass saddles for steady intonation across the entire scale length. Finally, this guitar ships with a Fender Custom Shop Deluxe Hardshell case.

With classic stylings and new angles on Telecaster tone, this limited edition piece from Fender Custom Shop checks so many boxes for players seeking a new avenue on which to create.
