Product Description
Key Features
- Journeyman Relic Nitro Finish – Expertly aged and relic’d to look like it has been your most prized possession for over 50 years. Lightly aged and checkered with just the right amount of honest playwear. This '59 Esquire features Closest Classic relic'd hardware for a slightly better-kept appearance.
- 1969 U - Not to be confused with the larger U-shaped necks of the early ‘50s, the ‘69 U-shaped neck profile offers players a fast-feeling neck with more pronounced shoulders.
- Quarter Sawn Maple - Straight-grained and around 50% more stable than a traditional plain-sawn neck.
‘51 Pickups
The Fender Custom Shop ’51 Nocaster (Telecaster) bridge pickup is a faithful recreation of quite possibly the most historically important electric guitar pickup ever to be produced… the sound that started it all. Constructed using period-correct fibre bobbins and cloth wire, flush (no stagger) Alnico 3 magnets with Enamel-coated magnet wire and a Tin-plated Copper base plate, this vintage-accurate pickup produces the esteemed shimmer and twang that early Teles are famed for. It's partnered with a Loaded '51 neck pickup for extra grunt and mid-range push.
Fender Custom Shop
The Fender Dream Factory… Fender’s best luthiers, using the best materials and tools all under one roof with the single unified mission of building the best guitars that Fender has ever produced. Founded in 1987 the Custom Shop was established to take Fender’s manufacturing back to its roots with smaller production numbers and higher quality. Famed for pushing Leo's designs to their absolute limits, the Custom Shop is the benchmark to which all other Fender electric guitars are compared to!
