From Fender’s Custom Shop and Alto Music’s guitar team, we are pleased to present this unique mashup of everything we love about “pre-CBS” era Telecasters. This stunning creation features an eye-catching Nitrocellulose Relic “Surf Pearl” finish, aged Micarta White “clay” dot markers, and a Mint Green guard. Adding a gorgeous, hand-selected AAA dark rosewood slab ‘board really sets this stunning guitar apart from the pack.

However, this “Yardbirds” era-styled beauty is more than just another pretty face. Players who crave a big ole’ 52 style neck contour will be delighted with the quarter-sawn, roasted maple neck U-shaped carve. A bone nut, medium-sized vintage fret wire, and a 9.5” radius fretboard assure an open, balanced tone with stable tuning and effortless string bending.

In the engine room, a hot twisted Tele neck pickup is perfectly matched with a hand-wound Custom Shop bridge pickup, with power to spare. A three-saddle relic bridge assures classic Tele twang. A modern Telecaster Relic control plate (with knurled knobs and a classic top-hat switch tip) completes the look and feel of this specially configured creation.
