A 2013 Fender Custom Shop "1953" Telecaster Relic in Butterscotch Blonde finish.
The blackguard Tele model in its iconic Butterscotch finish, beautifully relic'ed as only the Fender Custom Shop can do. The only negative thing about the early Tele's was their pickup wiring scheme and this guitar has been rewired with a modern 4-Way Selector Switch which provides a choice of serial or parallel operation when selecting both pickups. A good modification in our opinion. This guitar is in excellent original Relic condition and has been set up in-house by our esteemed Guitar Tech to play its best. Comes with its original hard shell case, COA, and a vintage-style bridge cover.
