Fender Custom Shop '63 Telecaster Heavy Relic in Aged Fire Mist Silver

Key Features

• Heavy Relic - Aged to replicate the mesmerising aesthetics of a working guitarist's workhorse instrument. This relic treatment features the typical playwear, dings and decolourisation found on many of the most lusted-over instruments.
• Twisted Tele/'51 Nocaster - The perfect combination of a Twisted Tele neck pickup for Strat-like chime and sparkle and a '51 Nocaster in the bridge for a pure unadulterated Tele twang.
• 9.50” Radius - Fender’s modern fingerboard radius favoured by many for its comfort and versatility.

‘60s C Oval Shape Neck

The neck that can do everything! Not too thin and not too fat, just right no matter what style of playing you want to play that day. The neck is big enough that you can still wrap your thumb over and feel the whole guitar shake as you strum the strings as hard as you can yet still thin enough that you can effortlessly shred up and down the neck.

Perfect Combinations

Utilising Fender's classic wood combination of Alder, Maple and Rosewood, this '62 Tele does it right! With its Alder body, Quarter Sawn Maple neck and AAA slab Rosewood fingerboard this electric guitar offers it in Premium styling. Tonally, it's well-balanced with a slight push in the upper mids as you'd expect from a Rosewood board Tele. The guitar sustains nicely and at 7.4lbs it’s a very comfortable weight.
