Fender Custom Shop 1-off 1952 Telecaster Journeyman Relic - Faded/Aged Butterscotch Blonde - NEW!!!
Fender Custom Shop1952 Telecaster Journeyman Relic
1-off Special Order w/Custom Specs
Hand Wound Pickups! Roasted Ash Body!
Light, Loud and Lively - 7.0lbs even!
The Fender Custom Shop 1952 Telecaster Journeyman Relic is light loud and lively! Based on a ’52 Tele base model, this one has some great custom features and upgrades that make for one effortlessly playable, and mean sounding machine! The body is Roasted Ash which has been sorted for light weight. The neck is carved from a single piece of Rift Sawn Maple and it features a custom ’57 Soft V Profile, Vintage Compound Radius (7.25”-9.5”), Narrow/Tall 6105 frets and a 1.650” Nut Width. Another nifty update is the Bi-Flex Truss Rod with Headstock Adjust – So you don’t have to remove the neck to adjust it! That’s a huge bonus.
Under the hood we have a set of Hand Wound ‘50/'51 Blackguard pickups and they are wired up with the “51 Modified Nocaster” circuit, which offers you the ability to blend the 2 pickups to taste. Pretty nifty – we are also happy to wire it up standard/modern before shipping if that’s what you prefer. Includes Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity and Case Candy.
The finish package was ordered special to have the look of a Heavy Relic without the over-the-top wear and tear. So, it’s a Journeyman Relic finish package with heavy fret ghosting on the fingerboard to mimic that filthy vintage look, and then the finish is worn off the back for the smooth, natural feel of bare wood.
