Being from the Fender Custom Shop, this guitar is built to a stunning standard boasting some outstanding features like the Hand-Wound '50 - '51 Blackguard Tele® Singlecoil pickup set that deliver those fantastic, twangy tones of the wild-west days of electric the guitar. No museum piece though, this 52 Tele boasts a superb quality neck with a 57 style Soft "V" carve that sits comfortably in the hand, and 7.25" to 9.5" compound radius fingerboard that facilitates comfortable lower end chord work and high end lead work and bends without 'fretting out'

Features We Love:

Custom Shop Built

Home to some of the most talented luthiers in the world, Fender Custom Shop has been producing incredible guitars since they first opened back in 1987. With a wealth of knowledge and skill all under one roof, each guitar is instilled with some of that Custom Shop magic.

Recreation of A Classic

A Blonde, Blackguard Tele with a Maple neck is a truly iconic look for a guitar, and this Fender Custom Shop model lives up to that legend. The Hand-Wound '50 - '51 Blackguard Tele® Singlecoil pickup set delivers the classic tones of the era with punchy lows, fat mids and crisp highs, further aided by the '51-'54 Tele Bridge with Brass Barrel Saddles for superb sustain.

Relic Finish

This guitar's Relic Aged finish completely evokes the idea of an instrument that's been heavily played but well taken care of over the decades. Taken out regularly for some serious sessions and gigs and put back in its case at the end of the night. The result is the gorgeous light eggshell-cracking to the finish, the wear and tear around the forearm bevel and that unmistakable fingerboard patina that's the sign of a real workhorse.
