The Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition 1963 Telecaster Relic in Black masterfully bridges the gap between historical accuracy and contemporary playability, capturing the unmistakable spirit of a golden-era workhorse. Its resonant, lightweight two-piece alder body wears a heavily checked, battle-worn nitrocellulose lacquer finish that provides the broken-in feel of a well-traveled instrument. A tinted, quarter-sawn maple neck features a highly comfortable '60s-style Oval "C" profile, topped by a dark rosewood fingerboard with a modern 9.5-inch radius and narrow-tall 6105 frets for effortless bending. Sonically, a duo of Custom Shop hand-wound '63 Telecaster single-coil pickups delivers the quintessential mid-sixties snap, bite, and woody punch, wired to a modern schematic for seamless tonal versatility. Tied together visually by an authentic three-ply mint green pickguard and aged hardware, this premium Telecaster serves up a stunning combination of legendary vintage aesthetics, impeccable craftsmanship, and addictive performance.
